About the volunteering opportunity
The ART CRU Berlin gallery in the Kunsthof at Oranienburgerstraße 27, 10117 Berlin is the first Berlin gallery to focus on art by people with disabilities and exceptional psychological experiences. The aim of the gallery is to promote and present these artists, most of whom are self-taught and outside the established art scene. These people often find it difficult or impossible to develop a professional career as an artist. That is why ART CRU focuses on reducing the distance between the established art world and the original and unadulterated works of these artists.
