What we need

• To monitor the exhibition during opening hours and guide visitors where needed.
• To provide general information of the exhibition and The Sovereign Art Foundation to the visitors and answering enquires.
• To provide on-site support, such as facilitating sales, and other ad-hoc duties.

Background

We have an upcoming art exhibition, The Sovereign Art Foundation Student Prize Hong Kong 2022 Finalists' Exhibition, and are looking to recruit some volunteers to support us. The Sovereign Art Foundation (SAF) is a charitable organisation founded in 2003 to recognise, support and promote contemporary art talent; and to bring the therapeutic benefits of art to disadvantaged children.​ Established in 2012, The Sovereign Art Foundation Students Prize, Hong Kong is an annual award that aims to recognise the work of secondary-school art students in Hong Kong by:​ exhibiting their work to a wide and engaged audience; celebrating the importance of art in the education system; rewarding successful secondary-school art programmes; engaging with organisations that share SAF’s aims of promoting arts in the community and encouraging cultural development. This year’s Finalists Exhibition will be held on G/F of Central Market from 26 October to 9 November – providing wonderful exposure for the young artists.

What we have

We will provide a briefing for the volunteer to equip them with details on our foundation and the exhibition, so that they may best communicate with visitors and showcase the exhibition.

Why this is important

This exhibition will help to support students in Hong Kong by providing them an incredible platform, as well as raising awareness for our charitable causes. The auction of the students' artwork, which the volunteer will help to facilitate, will act as an essential fundraiser for our programmes.
