With another volunteer or a member of Art Explora staff, you will facilitate a conversation about 3 artworks of your choosing in one of our 7 London care settings.
You will meet people of different ages and from different walks of life and help to alleviate feelings of loneliness in care settings. You will also be offered spaces on trips to galleries and theatres with our care setting residents as part of our ‘Art Explorers at...’ project. Additionally, as an Art Explora volunteer, you will also be invited to social events and training sessions we organise throughout the year Travel expenses can be reimbursed and we are happy to provide references if you have attended several sessions.
You will learn about art history, both through your own research and from your fellow volunteers. You will develop communication and public speaking skills, gain experience working with vulnerable adults and those living with a dementia, and have a great understanding of how art can support a sense of community and wellbeing.
We are looking for friendly team players with strong communication skills and an interest in art history. The ideal candidates are comfortable talking to people of all ages and eager to make a difference in their local community.
