Are you organized, creative, reliable, and a playful “Yes, and…” kind of person?
We might have a job for YOU! 😁💛

💛 Who are we?

Griottes Polyglottes Arts & EDI Society is a Vancouver-based nonprofit organization.

We gratefully acknowledge that we live, work, and play on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Through storytelling, theatre, improv, and playful activities, we help youth and immigrants build confidence, find their voice, and stand up against racism, discrimination, and bullying.

We believe meaningful learning doesn't have to be boring, mistakes are part of growing, and a little laughter can go a long way!

🌱 About the role
You'll work closely with our founder and a team of artists, facilitators, schools, and community partners to help bring two meaningful projects to life:

🎭 Youth Voices in School: Helping youth explore bullying and discrimination through Forum Theatre.

🤎 Black Voices at Work: Using interactive theatre to address anti-Black racism in the workplace.

You'll have responsibilities of your own, but you won't be expected to figure everything out alone.
We'll provide guidance, feedback, and opportunities to grow your skills along the way.

🛠️ What you'll do

Project coordination (your main role)

• Help plan and coordinate workshops, activities, schedules, and deadlines

• Communicate with schools, artists, youth, and community partners

• Keep track of tasks, follow up with people, and help keep projects moving

• Contribute creative ideas to educational activities and resources

• Collect feedback, document results, and help prepare project reports

• Help create a portfolio so we can bring our programs to more communities

Workshop facilitation (occasionally) 🎭

Sometimes, you'll get to step away from your computer and join the fun in person!
After receiving training, you may help facilitate workshops using storytelling, Forum Theatre, role-play, and improv games.

No previous facilitation experience required. We'll train you! 😊

🌟 Who we're looking for

You don't need to have all the answers with 25 years of experience and 12 degrees. 

But there are a few things that matter to us!

• You speak and write French and English

• You're organized, reliable, and can manage your priorities

• You care deeply about challenging racism, discrimination, and bullying

• You enjoy working with people from different backgrounds

• You're curious, creative, and comfortable asking questions

• You're based in Vancouver or the surrounding area and can travel to schools across BC when needed

Experience in project coordination, community programs, education, arts, or nonprofit organizations is a BONUS!

And one thing that's especially important to us:

You don't need to be an expert in anti-racism or have all the answers. But you should be willing to listen, learn, challenge your own assumptions, and contribute to meaningful change.
