What’s the mission of your community? 🎯

With 23 past editions, Sajeta established itself as one of the most prominent art festivals of this type in Slovenia. It is a place of encounter for various artistic practices and experiences with music as its central component. By deviating from the typical festival outline, Sajeta comes with a rather special character; each year with its carefully selected program of all styles and genres it endeavors to satisfy its curious visitors and tries to create a harbor of creativity and diversity in the specific natural setting. This year’s slogan is “Clean your space for a better place” so we will also focus on sustainability, which has always been a very big part of our identity.

Volunteers with disabilities ♿

We can accommodate volunteers with disabilities depending on what kind of disabilities. The candidate is expected to perform certain tasks. If his condition doesn’t prevent him from being able to do it, we don’t see the problem. It is a nature-located event, the terrain can be a bit rough, so maybe not the best choice for people on wheelchairs.

• Up to 10 volunteers

When would you need volunteers? 📅

• 3. 7. – 10. 7. 2023

How many hours of help per day? ⏱

• 4-5 hours of help per day

How many days of help per week? 🌒

• 6 days per week – 1 day off

Note about the volunteer work and other expectations 📝

They work a lot of days because this is the way the festival works and it lasts just one week. But their tasks will be hopefully fun for them, not repetitive or hard physical labour, more like meeting the artists and making posts. With a lot of aspiring and well-established artists on a regular basis. Sajeta’s vibe is very relaxed, fun, and inclusive, so it is an overall pleasant experience for everyone involved.

In return we expect you to take your assignment seriously, and respect the agreements while enjoying your work and having fun. We are very excited to welcome you to this year’s Sajeta team! You can participate in one of three different areas of work: marketing, hosting, and technical support.
