    Since we just moved to a new location you’ll be asked to help out with moving and putting up our installations and cleaning up stuff. Some of our projects are for example: music rehearsal space, space for workshops, playground for children, outside bar, recup station,... .

    The help can be physically demanding, if you’re interested you can work with electric handheld tools and such. there will be always someone from us who will be there to work together with.



    Sometimes there’s help needed with specific work in our workshop, cleaning up the atelier, painting decorations, recovering materials, ... We share it with others, and have been creating decorations for festivals and theater or other random silly projects.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Your accommodation is situated in the same building, you might have to share a room with other volunteers. We are looking for 1 to 3 volunteers to help us out. We will work together 5 days a week starting each day at 9h, after having breakfast together. Lunch will be provided, dinner we will prepare together when possible, but you can also be on your own in the evenings when our schedules are too busy. We expect volunteers to tidy up after themselves. Your free time is your own. Ghent is a vibrant city with lots going on, we are situated not so far from the centre.

    If you’re interested let us know and tell us something about yourself, if you have some skills that might come in handy and why you are volunteering.

    Jeplah!
