The role is to help support local, "disadvantaged" young people at their creative workshops between 3.15pm-5.15pm (or at least until 3.45pm if you aren't available for the whole workshop), term-time Tuesdays and some Saturdays at the Green Man Gallery, Hardwick Hall in Buxton. The project runs from mid-February to December but you don't need to commit to every workshop. 

Volunteers should be kind, patient and up for a spot of creative mayhem! Workshops will focus on puppetry, music and multimedia arts. Training will be provided. This is a great opportunity for anyone who would like to work with young people, help and support others or to just get involved in a vibrant community arts group. "We have lots going on this year, we just need more people!"
