Visual art Penrose Māpura Studios - disability arts!
As a studio volunteer, your role will involve helping to set up materials before each class and assisting with packing up afterward. You’ll work closely with the tutor supporting them during sessions as part of the team. You'll participate in class activities, including sharing circles, discussions, and warm-up exercises, within the structure provided by the tutor. We ask that you arrive on time, stay for your agreed shift, and keep us informed if you’re unable to make it—life happens, and we understand, but communication is key.
This role would suit someone passionate about people, who is able to both follow the lead of the tutor as well as pick up on what is required unprompted. You do not need experience with art just a strong ability to be sensitive to the needs of others.
You can expect a warm and inclusive environment, clear communication and guidance, opportunities to learn and grow, and regular check-ins with space for feedback.
It is important that you are able to fit in to the Mapura Studios culture - this requires emotional intelligence and sensitivity
• Inclusion - everyone is welcome and treated with respect.
• Expression - Every voice and story matters.
• Connection - Relationships are at the heart of our work.
• Respect - We honour the dignity and diversity of every person.
