Resumo: The host organization is an association for contemporary art and was founded in 1999. There is also a particularly strong linkage to the Southeast European area.
Contemporary visual art is always the starting point for our programmes, with an emphasis on art production that explicitly deals with social, political, economical and ecological issues of our time. The public space is a highly significant site for the organization, as a space where we can make art happen in seeking to leave behind the confines of the art space and actively engage people with art and extend our audience.
Moreover, a strong focus on cooperation has always been an essential element of the our philosophy, as well as acting in networks.

Perfil: - He/she should be a committed person,
- Able to carry out activities autonomously (of course supported by the mentor and the team in each stage of the project)
- Open and interested in art, society, and communication.
- Age: 17-30

Tarefas: What we can offer in terms of Service and learning opportunities: - our organization constantly organises several projects at a time (e.g. exhibitions, conferences, interventions in public space, publishing books, etc.). It’s a great place to learn how to conceive, organise and carry out projects of all kind – from the beginning to the end. This will thus support the volunteers’ sense of initiative and entrepreneurship.

- EVS volunteers will meet many different interesting people – artists, activists, cultural workers, … and will thus be able to improve their social and civic competence - the volunteers will be in contact with many artworks and will thus learn about contemporary art, about material and technical aspects of artworks, about their handling, and so on.

- the volunteers will be provided with a computer and will be handling technical devices (needed for the exhibition) – and can thus improve their digital competence

- sometimes the volunteers are involved in the creation and the handling of a budget for a certain project, which supports mathematical competence

- the orgaization provides language courses for non-Germans speaking volunteers as well as for German-speaking volunteers who are interested in learning or improving another language - by keeping worksheets where the volunteers enter the projects they are working on and by reflecting on what they have done together with the mentor and how they have learnt, we try to support their learning to learn competence Role of the volunteers and activities: We have two working places for the volunteers: one in the exhibition room where they are the first person one meets when entering , or they sit in the back office together with the team. The volunteers support us in all our projects, for example by:
a) taking over small organisatorical parts of bigger projects (i.e. communicating with artists and organisations, doing researches, booking travels/accomodation, …)
b) helping to set up exhibitions (not only hanging up pictures, but also preparing installations, setting up videoworks,…) - giving information to visitors
c) helping to keep our webpages updated - supporting the team in all kinds of daily tasks - attending to our archive
