You can breathe a heavy sigh of relief. Turn off that alarm clock. You can close the door on your cupboard of revision cards, textbooks and exam papers. You can finally start your summer. That’s until you realise you have absolutely, no, plans. Nothing. Why settle for 6 weeks of sofa slumming, TV marathons and non-negotiable babysitting? Instead get involved,volunteering with the Flyover Show taking place on Saturday 18th August 2018.
Volunteering
Whether we like to admit it or not, giving up our time is a commitment many of us are reluctant to make. But, what if it didn’t involve sorting out people’s old clothes in a local charity shop? What if wasn’t about spending hours doing the same thing? What if it did involve working on one of Birmingham’s most diverse, innovative and contemporary festivals? And all that while boosting your skills and increasing your employability? What if it was about meeting the creatives of tomorrow, event managing and jamming out to the beats of rappers, the melodies of jazz artists and bars of M.C.s?
Summer doesn’t have to be like it always is. The Flyover show is a celebration of the talent that often goes unnoticed, unrecognised and unheard of in Handsworth and its surrounding areas. It’s a celebration of the community that thrives, strives and vibes together, all over a shared love of great music and great art. Come and be part of this celebration and make your plans for the summer now!
