Description
Hi!
(3500kr - We are now offering 3500kr per month pocket money/support costs for babysitting, and household tasks (duties similar to an Au Pair) support for Feb 2024 to May 2024 - as we want a fully responsible and committed volunteer hence adding extra support for costs)
We are a small creative team situated in Arvidsjaur town and Moskosel village in the Swedish North - surrounded by Northern Lights and Midnight sun. We are working on creating a cultural space. A place for creation, living and experience, all in a beautiful surrounding natural landscape.
We have several properties - from "normal houses" to a large school building that we are converting to be an Art Resort. With a relax areas (sauna, gym, activity sports hall), and several living tiny homes that are at the moment being renovated. We combine art with innovation - VR, blockchain, and metaverse - which are more and more part of our reality.
We are at the moment focusing on renovating older houses in the Moskosel village to become a liveable place for artists and creators.
If you wish to join us in this important cause, we are looking for people who can support us, in our daily activities for the houses/apartments to be ready for the summer. This includes; helping out with cleaning, removing carpets, sanding floors, scraping houses, painting, relocating item and simple assistance in other tasks.
Also, if you are an IT, marketing, and social media lover who wants to join in creating publicity about this space- this is also a need.
Please join us in making this vibrant important cool artspace and children friendly!
