WHV Rock Carvings in Tanum project is organised by Vitlycke museum in Tanumshede in west Sweden. Vitlycke museum is a knowledge and experience centre in Tanum Unesco World Heritage site - an area of about 600 rock carving art sites. Here you can experience world class rock carving art and explore the Bronze Age world.

Work: The volunteers will help with the green area maintenance in the bronze age farm and around the rock carvings. The group should be ready for hands-on activities and working outdoors regardless of the weather. The volunteers also assist in preparing for the summer solstice event, which is held during the camp. The midsummer preparations include picking flowers, dressing the maypole, and talking to our visitors about the event.

Accomodation and food: The accommodation is located between the museum and a forest. There are small cottages with bunk beds and cooking facilities. Bathrooms and showers are located in a nearby building. The volunteers will cook most of their meals together as a group.
