The Biennale of Sydney for 2016 has already started and it’s in it’s 20th year of featuring fantastic works of art and installation.

Biennale of Sydney volunteers have the chance to be part of an incredible international art exhibition held on Cockatoo Island (8 mins from Darling Harbour by Ferry – free transport) and at Carriageworks where contemporary art meets heritage.

If you love contemporary art, are proactive and dedicated and enjoy engaging with the public, you can apply now to be a part of the 20th Biennale of Sydney:

How will you make a difference?
As a Biennale Envoy you will be the link between the artwork and the public in this unique and incredible atmosphere.
You will have the opportunity to share your passion with open minded and curious public who are visiting to learn more about contemporary art.

Your role will be to engage public in a conversation about various artworks and to answer questions.

Envoys are the reflection of what this exhibition is all about:

This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in contemporary art or working/studying in the field to develop their skills and experience or to share their passion.
