Join the team today as an artist, volunteer - or both!
Although the team is quite small, our volunteers manage to accomplish a lot through their dedication and commitment! Volunteering with AYAIA is flexible, as we understand that education and work remains our volunteer's #1 priorities. We're split up between 5 different teams, check them out below!
As a content creator, you will be expected to have basic knowledge and experience of a design software or website - be it Adobe, Canva, ProCreate, or anything else. You will be expected to create up to 3 pieces of content each week in collaboration with the marketing and social media volunteers, for both our Instagram and Facebook.
As a social media volunteer, you will work with the content creation and marketing team to ensure that there is a consistent posting schedule for both AYAIA's Facebook and Instagram. You will also oversee answering questions or replying to DMs on our social media.
In marketing, you will be expected to help draft proposals for the outreach volunteers to contact local organisations, platforms, and other media sites to boost our publicity and image. You will also ensure and review the content creators' posts are consistent with our branding. Later, you will help create and manage our RedBubble account to sell artwork from the online exhibition, ensuring the dimensions and content types are consistent with our exhibitions.
As an outreach volunteer, you will oversee contacting local schools, organisations and programmes for two main reasons: publicity and donations. As our artists can choose from whichever organisation they wish to support, you will be in charge of contacting those organisations and ensuring the donation process will go smoothly.
Your role will be to keep a record of all the artists and artworks being submitted into both the online and offline exhibitions and oversee and manage the costs and donations being sent in. You will be expected to keep track of how much each donation is, and where it is being donated to - which will also be handled by Outreach volunteers. In addition, you will be responsible for keeping track of the RedBubble account's earnings, where you will work with the marketing team to promote and sell.
