Diakoniewerk Gallneukirchen – Haus Bethanien project
Tâches du volontaire :
The Diakoniewerk art workshop in Haus Bethanien, Gallneukirchen entails these four areas:
STUDIO:

Types of art produced here include drawing, painting, printmaking and three-dimensional design.
THEATRE:
The Malaria Theater is an initiative of artistic people from the Diakoniewerk at Gallneukirchen.
The eleven-member ensemble works on its own creations in co-operation with freelance guest actors and musicians as well as with our own internal artistic and educational team.
Performance hallmarks have included witty sketches and word creations, as well as emotional plays which have achieved audience acclaim. The production process of longer plays, lasting between 65 to 90 minutes, can take at least two years.
MACHEREI:
This department concentrates on team-building activities, the promotion of independent work, and their integration into group-specific work processes.
The Macherei is responsible for the maintenance of the online shop, which sells products from the Diakoniewerk workshops. Its product line is known as “derart” (“in such a way”).
The shop is managed by learning-disabled staff members, and this includes the processing of the incoming orders, the packaging and shipping of the goods, and the managing of the stock.
MEDIA:
The transfer of knowledge is an important part of the Diakoniewerk’s disability work. The media workshop publishes the magazine “ICH und WIR” on a quarterly basis.
Under the motto “by disabled people, for disabled people” the journal “ICH und WIR” is written by disabled staff members in the media workshop. The texts are written in simple language.
Editing, photography and customer service are taught in the media workshop.

It’s also part of the job, to do easy exercises with clients, under guidance of a physiotherapist, to keep their agility.
Taking walks with our clients are always very welcome.
This are just some of the main tasks that we do in our group. According to the situation, it is possible to find new tasks.
