20232024 Pennywafelhuis Middelburg
Project description
Pennywafelhuis in Middelburg is an art-based community initiative that runs art and language workshops for community members free of charge. There is a need to find a new leader to future proof the Pennywafelhuis as the two leaders of the Pennywafelhuis are going to retire in a few years, but they are worried about what will happen to the Pennywafelhuis when they do.
Outcomes
Due to being young students who do not study the arts, they did not have the connections needed to find a leader ourselves. For this reason, they have instead focused on the steps to finding a new leader. They suggested creating a job posting and start trying to find new leaders. Pennywafelhuis could have an integrative training program that involves the gradual passing of leadership until the current- and new leaders are comfortable with their roles. Finally, they should follow up regularly for the first year to ensure everything is progressing. They created a document where there is a future plan described for the Pennywafelhuis. Along with a section that would explain how new workshops could benefit the Pennywafelhuis in a monetary fashion.
