  Beschreibung

  We are a theatre and cultural centre in Jenin Refugee Camp, occupied Palestine. We believe that the arts have a crucial role to play in building a free and healthy society, and our contribution to that is a unique programme of activities in performing arts and multimedia, including theatre and drama, filmmaking, photography and creative writing.
  We stage professional theatre productions, hold amateur drama workshops and run a three-year educational program in acting. We offer training in photography and publish books, photography exhibitions and short films. Through professional training within the fields of theatre and multimedia the theatre has substantially increased local artistic capacity and developed an extensive network of partners and supporters in Occupied Palestine and throughout the world.

  The Theatre receives volunteers from all corners of the world who come to share their skills in solidarity with the people in Jenin. We prefer to host volunteers on a more long-term basis, at least two to three months, or recurring volunteers who come for a shorter time each year.
  
  Since this is a volunteer opportunity we do not pay salaries. We do provide free accommodation for all volunteers in our guesthouse. We also cover all work-related costs such as local transportation.
  
  Volunteering at the theatre won’t make you financially rich but we guarantee that you will be rich in experiences. You will be working within a creative setting, with people from Occupied Palestine and all over the world, making friends for life and contributing towards increasing the capacity of our staff and students.
