Question 1

Do you have a volunteering programme? How can I become involved?

Accepted Answer

Hi stranger! We do and would love for you to join our team! 
Usually we work with young professionals (age up to 35, but we are not so strict about it, unless a particular program specifically says so) who are inspired to learn and share their knowledge & skills. We have an on going volunteering program where you can exchange your skills and work for accomodation and such, but also a few partner programs from international organizations as well. Feel free to shoot us an e-mail or give us a call!

What future projects are there already in preparation?

Question 3

Do you offer art residencies and, if so, how do I find out about them?"

Accepted Answer

Yes we do! Our art residency programs can last anywhere from 3 weeks and up to 6 month (usually about a 3 month duration). Work with us. Share your art. We provide you with a space to work and excersise your creative flow and arrange an exhibition for you at the end of your stay.
Artists have the opportunity to work at the gallery in a studio space using our resources for the promotion of their works. Moreover, a renowned art curator with a long record of art projects and exhibitions in London is there to help bring your art presentation skills to the next level.
Finally, you will work in the heart of the Atlantic ocean, inspired by magnificent views and wonderful climate. We work with various types of visual artistic expression so try your chance!

Technically, no, there is no upper age limit. Unless we work with a particular program and organization that has it's own eligibility charachteristics.
