About this project

Start date:
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.
