Get Creative!
GET CREATIVE is a new project funded by the v Project /GCap Media Charities (Gemini FM). If you are a young person aged 16-25 you are eligible for this four-day course, which will take place in May/June 2008. The course is FREE!!!!
If you are successful in gaining a place on the course, you will receive tuition in leading a performing arts workshop in the community. If you have an existing interest, and/or experience in Music, Dance or Drama, and/or community work, this will be a great opportunity for you. Working with three other volunteers and a professional mentor, you will spend three days learning about running a workshop and planning your own workshop for the fourth day. With the support of your professional mentor, you and your three fellow volunteers will then run a workshop in the community. This workshop will last for three hours. The course will be followed by a celebration with your group and you will receive a certificate showing your involvement in the project.
So, if you are interested in learning more about community work, volunteering and/or teaching the performing arts (either Music, Dance or Drama) – get in touch! This is a chance to learn whilst giving something back to the community, gaining vital skills and having fun at the same time. Some funding for transport will be provided, as you may need to travel (within Devon) to attend the workshops. There will also be refreshments available.
Those interested in applying to be a volunteer on this project, should contact us as soon as possible, and will then be given an application form to complete. Places are limited, so early applications are advised. The course will run this May and June, so get in touch as soon as possible to secure a place.
