Volunteer role · De Voorkamer
Host of Community Open Hours
We're looking for new volunteers to host our Community Open Hours, which take place every Wednesday from 12:00 to 18:00.
Become a Community Open Hours Host!
Do you enjoy meeting new people and making others feel welcome? Join De Voorkamer volunteer community as a host of Community Open Hours!
Think of it as helping take care of a shared living room: a welcoming space that belongs to everyone and that we look after together.
About Community Open Hours
Every Wednesday, De Voorkamer opens its doors to anyone who would like to spend some time in the space and use it in their own way. People can drop by on their own or with others to draw, have a cup of coffee, read, work, chat, play games or simply relax. There's no set programme. It's a space for everyone to make their own.
Practical information
- Community Open Hours take place every Wednesday from 12:00 to 18:00.
- As a host, you would join us for one three-hour shift, either from 12:00 to 15:00 or from 15:00 to 18:00.
- We ask hosts to commit to at least one shift per month, though you're of course welcome to do more if you'd like!
- Once we have a few new people on board, we'll organise an introductory training session to walk you through everything and make sure you feel comfortable hosting the Open Hours independently.
About De Voorkamer
De Voorkamer opened its doors in Utrecht in 2016 as a cultural meeting space that promotes inclusion and redefines integration. Through co-creation we stimulate and facilitate the talents of our diverse community.
Together with the community we design meetings and projects that bring our space to life: weekly language cafés and game nights, storytelling events, art and design projects, music and cooking, and much more. Our goal is a Safe(r) Space where people can share thoughts, feelings and knowledge, exchange experiences and build networks.
De Voorkamer is an initiative of Stichting Collective Nouns.
