Projekta apraksts

The Crescent is a vibrant community arts centre & cultural hub where everyone can experience the power of the arts & develop their creativity. We provide opportunities for people to meet, be inspired, experience & participate in a wide range of art forms & our offering is simple: each week we have a host of live events & offer a diverse learning programme. Please see below & our website for further information.

The volunteer should have a good level of English or be prepared to work hard to improve their language skills quickly, since the role will involve direct contact with the public, including face to face & telephone contact. The placement involves working alongside the Marketing Officer, but those with no experience can apply. The placement will be of most interest to someone who wishes to understand the running of a multi-disciplinary arts centre and is willing to work hard.
