We are looking for motivated individuals to volunteer and help run the Whale of a Time Workshop.
At Whale of a Time we have a unique approach in engaging the community through a creative message. During the Whale of a Time Workshop we aim to engage people of all age groups with the theme of endangered species. People make their favourite animal species in clay and take the experience home in their hearts.
Having a whale of a time, using your creativity, learning new skills sculpting in clay, while working from your imagination, from reference images and 3d models of different animal species, and learning about wildlife is what the workshop is all about. Please view your Whale of a Time Gallery at www.whaleofatime.org
Whale of a Time Volunteers will help with the running of the workshop and be able to work in a team, be flexible and travel to different locations in and around Birmingham and sometimes further.
During workshops you’ll be focus point for the visitors and support where necessary.
Main tasks include handing out art materials and tools, helping people with their masterpieces, discussing environmental issues, tidying workshop space, being you and having a whale of a time!
It would be helpful but is not requirement if you have previous experience working with people of all age groups, using clay and / or other art materials in a school or workshop environment.
Your keen interest in wildlife conservation and education will find great interest in discussions during the workshop and encourage people to create a positive attitude towards protecting and looking after our planet.
Whale of a Time exists to enrich our global culture with the spirit of nature, to achieve cultural change and build a beautiful relationship with our environment.
We visit youth and community centres, festivals, private and public events including shows and exhibitions.

Have a Whale of a Time!
