We wish to start an OPEN CALL FOR ARTISTS and VOLUNTEERS to come to our lands for a few weeks and to work with us: the locals, the artists, the children, and the bystanders, to learn from each other and to enjoy days while creating and leaving behind all kinds of art … a bit of our souls…magic! ….

My wish is to create opportunities for people to play, for locals to learn and earn and for visitors to feel experiences… What type of host are you?Ĭommunity/ Eco-village What are you looking for help with?īeing a small community our budget is virtually non-existent, so we creatively wish to open our lands to artists and volunteers and also to attract visitors. There are 4 lakes in the area, some old gold/copper mines, beautiful forests and not the best roads to get here. The community is small, with around 2000 persons spread over a valley in around 800 homes. from the idea that everyone needs to play and have magic in their lives no matter the age… Feeding the inner child! I learned after working in public administration, for 2 years in a bigger city, that the system is as rigid as the people who apply it… and that is why I chose to come and work for this community… because I believe in the people here, who are open and kind and wishes to help the community develop… and also they support my crazy ideas… So this initiative comes from the heart…. I am an architect that decided to try and change the world from within the system. Magic forest volunteer project – The Village of Dognecea is a very small community in South-Western Romania. Help to create a Magic forest in old mining Romanian Village!
