Description
Hello,
We are a group of friends organising folk events in Gent. We do this on a non-profit base.
Folk is a warm community of people from all ages who come together to enjoy beautiful (live) music and who like dancing in couple and as a group.
We organise 1 dance evening per month & next year from 21 to 23 february 2025 we are organising our very first Folkfestival in Ghent for a maximum of 400 people and we can use your help to make it happen. The Folk community is very open and you will be welcomed fully. There will be opportunities to join dances & dance initiations but you are by no means obliged to dance if you don't want to. At the moment (08/10/2024) we have about 25 people signed up for volunteering but we do need 50 people so there is still room for you to join! Current volunteers are a 50/50 mix of Belgians & international volunteers.
There will be plenty of opportunities to interact and get to know local dancers and artists aswell as international ones.
When do we need help?
- 21-23 february 2025, for help during the festival itself. -> we can provide accomodation for this period.
- Our regular evenings, we usually use local volunteers, because we can't provide accomodation for this period.
- There are other balfolk festivals in the area (Belgium, Netherlands, France, Germany) 1 of them in Leuven in march is on workaway.Types d'aide et opportunités d'apprendre
