Cultural Canvas Thailand offers unique and meaningful volunteer experiences in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Placements are available in the following areas: hill tribe education, HIV/AIDS prevention, sex worker education and assistance, and Burmese refugee education and assistance.
Cultural Canvas Thailand also utilizes artistic outreach programs as a means of therapy, empowerment and education for our focus groups in Chiang Mai. Through artistic expression, stigmatized groups are afforded the opportunity to make their voices heard and their backgrounds understood. At a fundamental level, the artistic outreach programs will provide focus groups with an activity based outlet where they are removed from the problems that they face on a daily basis.

Cultural Canvas could be an ideal component in a Gap Year between high school and college, undergraduate and graduate school, or for college students taking a semester or two out from their studies. It offers an excellent opportunity to experience a different culture and world perspective while doing something really useful. Even the shortest stint with Cultural Canvas will be beneficial for someone starting out on the arduous and competitive journey through college life and beyond. For students, regardless of your major, volunteering abroad will be a maturing experience and, while it will not guarantee a place at college, grad school or the work place, it will certainly add to an application.
