Volunteering opportunities in the arts

Becoming a volunteer can be a very rewarding and enjoyable experience. The arts and creative sector is a popular choice for volunteering and there are many opportunities. Many groups and organisations would find it difficult to undertake the full activities they do or run their organisation with out the help of volunteers.

Volunteering at the White Lion in Streatham

The White Lion is a visionary and completely unique new hostel and bar run by Music 4 Children, a charity dedicated to helping vulnerable children worldwide.

It is the only live music venue run by a charity.  If you want to learn how to be a sound engineer, work in a radio station, learn how to play the guitar or DJ then the White Lion can show you how. This is a community run organisation which aims to inspire and teach young people and adults.  The venue can only survive through the help of its volunteers, at the moment they need people who can hand out flyers and promote the venue, there is a cash incentive if you can get people through the door.

They are also looking for promoters, artists and people who would like to put on workshops, or host an event. 

The White Lion is also available for hire, if you want a venue which is different and where the emphasis is about giving something back to the South London community please get involved.

Please contact: events@music4children.org and let them know what you would like to do, or visit the The White Lion, Streatham Facebook page.
