We are looking for someone passionate about arts engagement to volunteer with us over the summer. The voluntary role will support the dissemination and promotion of the Art Explora – Académie des beaux-arts European Award.

The European Award encourages new forms of audience engagement and participation in arts and culture, supporting innovative projects in all art forms across Europe.

There are 3 awards of €50,000, plus one Audience Choice Award and one Special Jury Award.

Main Duties

The volunteer will support the team in disseminating and promoting the European Award to arts organisations across Europe. Each year, we focus on a different area in Europe, encourage new organisations from that area to apply, and help them with the application process. In 2024, we are concentrating on the Western Balkans, with continuous support to Central Europe (Germany specifically) and the UK. The 2024 Award is announced on 13 May and closes on 6 September 2024.

You will do online research on arts organisations and innovative arts engagement work in these target areas, then contact the arts organisations to present the European Award and explain how they can apply. This work can be done in English but additional European language skills are a plus All phone expenses are covered.

You will also help organise a webinar to support the dissemination of the Award to inspire and inform potential candidates all over Europe.

What will the volunteering role offer the student and what will they learn while they are with you?
  • Learn about the operations of a small non-profit in the arts sector in London, and the work Art Explora does to share arts and culture with everyone – locally, nationally and globally.
  • Join a young and dynamic team in a great central London location.
  • Learn about the operations of an award/grant programme – the need for clear guidelines and eligibility criteria and application guidance and support.
  • Discover our community programmes bringing the arts into care setting like care homes and children’s centres, with an opportunity to observe or take part.
  • Learn about the incredible variety of social-impact arts programmes across Europe – across all art forms (visual arts, performing arts, dance, theatre, music, literature, etc) and social contexts.
