Artbeat Studio Community Engagement Assistant

I will be working with the team as the community engagement assistant to help with online engagement by helping facilitate their weekly art demonstrations. Project activities for that will include researching art methods and speaking on different topics in regards to mental well-being. Other projects I will be taking on are helping with in-person events when those are available depending on covid restrictions. This project will involve volunteer coordination, reaching out to alumni of their residence program to help facilitate art programming, and finding new ways to communicate and engage in the community. The last project I will be taking on is assisting with their booth at the weekly CEDA market. This project will include volunteer coordination, outreach to alumni, tracking sales, helping with set up, and engaging with people at the market. I believe these projects and this role will allow me to further refine my interpersonal skills and use my project management skills to overcome any obstacles that come along the way. Throughout my time at the studio working on different projects, I will be able to assess the mental health practices that Artbeat studio currently incorporates.
