We are looking for Mural Artists to join a very special art and social project. The volunteers will paint walls in a small municipallity together with locals. Due to Covid 19 loneliness has generated a significant increase in senile dementia, reduced mobility, depression and dependency among vulnerable populations. Also many people have serious injures that need to be cure by rehabilitation. Therefore we want to create brither and colourful spacel to become open spaces but above all an opportunity for social relations and the dissemination of healthy practices and healthy living. The volunteers will have an opportunity to live and paint together in a group of people of different nationalities, so they can learn many interesting things from each other and raise their level of cultural tolerance. Also, it's a great experience of working in a team, especially an international one. It's a project where you can show all your artistic talents and creativity where everyone will learn from each other. PARTICIPANT PROFILE: We are looking for young people who have good skills as painter and designer.
It is an ESC project that allows volunteers from other countries without the support from EU funding. Some months ago we did a version that was supported as a volunteering team in high priority area project. The project is hosted by De Amicitia and organized in collaboration with local organizations
Sanet is a small town in the southwest of Spain close to Dénia (Comunidad de Valencia) in beautiful countryside, surrounded by hills which are great for hiking - there are a lot of hiking trails to discover. There is a local swimming pool available and Dénia is only 5 minutes by car. The house is located right in the middle of town, so there are great opportunities to interact and socialize with the locals and to truly experience the Spanish countryside. Furthermore, the volunteers can make excursions to Ondara and El Vergel, local towns close to Sanet. The surrounding villages like Benimelli and Ràfol d'Almunia can also be visited. There will also be day trips to the beach which is about 15 minutes by car from Sanet.
The project will be develope in Denia and other towns nearby but volunteers will stay in a house in Sanet i Negrals (Alicante). First days will be used to prepare sketches and for group dynamics, and therefore the group will stay mainly at this house to be able to create. During the following days, they will be travelling to the activity place, if the work is finished they will help painting our house or other walls. Food expenses are covered by De Amicitia. The volunteers are meant to cook their meals.
Interview will be required
