Job Summary

Help Unveiling the Soul turn listeners into a room: poetry dinners, writing workshops, open sessions. Plan, find spaces, invite people, shape the atmosphere. Remote + in-person (NL preferred). Unpaid.

Job Description

Unveiling the Soul wants more gatherings where the community comes off the page and the radio frequency and becomes real - poetry dinners, writing workshops, open sessions. Mainly in person (Netherlands / Amsterdam-Rotterdam), open to online.

You'll help make them happen: find spaces, , facilitators, invite people, figure out what a good evening feels like.

You've organised something before, even small. You know the difference between a full room and a room that actually talks.

Time : Flexible - no set hours or required tasks. We'll shape the involvement together around what the project needs and what you can offer.

DURATION

This role starts as a volunteer position, so we can put more focus on finding funding for the project. Once funding is in place, we will evaluate together whether you would like to continue working with us in a paid capacity.

We don't yet know the exact timeline for that. For that reason, and in line with ArtsJobs guidelines, this volunteer listing is for an initial period of up to 6 months only. Toward the end of those 6 months we will review with you - including whether funding has come through and what next steps look like.

Job Requirements

You've organised something before, even something small, or you've always wanted to

You can handle chaos without becoming chaotic yourself
