Call for Volunteers on Creative collaborations in Sport

 

We would like to start new types of activities that engage our sport members and artists in creative collaborations for interaction with the general public. These activities would include experimental work and productions beyond conventions of sport disciplines or classical art.

They would also allow us to be seen in public less as an isolated LGBTQ community and more as a proactive sport collective interested in contributing to cultural and social innovation.
Based on recent initiatives in sport to engage with topic of diversity and minorities in societies, we would also like to use this interest and show and express our diversity and creativity.

For these activities we are looking for individuals who are interested in dedicating some free time (ca 8 hours a month) and focus during a few months in 2012 to help artists and athletes work together in producing collaborative and innovative work. This is an opportunity to be working with contemporary artists (visual, performance, sound, new media, and community art, among others) in exploring how and where sport can be innovated and support social interaction, create new experiences and knowledge. Creative production work will be a valuable process to experience, resulting in something you take part in as a contributor.

Some of the inspirational art projects already produced in Spain can be seen on the page of IDENSITAT (of different artists and creative working with communities):http://idensitat.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=112&Itemid=190

This project includes collaboration with other European LGBT sports clubs. It is preferred that person speaks basic English, but not a must.
