Clondalkin Intercultural Centre is looking for volunteers for an exciting new project teaching group English classes.
Classes will run every Monday to Thursday from 10 to 12.30 pm and tuesday from 2-4pm.   Teaching experience is a plus but not essential, volunteers should be patient and reliable and committed to the ethos of the Intercultural Centre.

Inspiring the Future Ireland is looking for volunteers from the world of work to  inspire and motivate young people to broaden their career aspirations. To do this they are looking for volunteer speakers to visit primary and secondary schools in Tallaght and Clondalkin to talk to students about their own educational backgrounds and career paths. All you need is one hour, once off, and a willingness to share your journey!

Our good friends at Clondalkin Global Garden are hoping to gradually expand their volunteer team by involving a small number of new volunteers each week over the next while.  Availability on Saturdays 11.30am to 3pm is essential as well as genuine knowledge and interest in organic gardening.  Keep an eye on this role as a limited number of places will open up each week!

This month we feature Clondalkin volunteer Leyla Daryaniyan who tells us about her wonderful experience of volunteering at the Five Lamps Arts Festival.  

My name is Leyla Daryaniyan and I am an artist.  This summer I applied on I-VOL to volunteer at the Five Lamps Arts Festival Dublin.

After a short application process, I was delighted to be able to volunteer in June and July at one of the art exhibitions being held as part of the festival.

My role as a Festival Volunteer was to welcome people to an art exhibition held at the Central Bank.  Lots of people attended and it was a privilege to work with the artist to share their paintings with others and talk about their work.  I was also able to direct attendees to the artist’s social media platforms.  

Art gives so much joy.  Paintings are unique and specific to each person individually – like a fingerprint.  It was wonderful to share that inspiration and insight with others.  Also for me, as I am very interested in getting to know other cultures, meeting Irish people was very interesting,  talking to them and from the artist’s paintings, learning more about lifestyles and interests.  

As a volunteer I gained a huge amount personally and culturally by being part of the Festival and I am grateful for the opportunity.
