By getting involved, you make a valuable contribution to people who need extra support in their everyday lives. This summer, the Living Museum Zurich is relocating from Altstetten to Witikon, offering new spaces for people with mental health challenges – a welcoming meeting place that fosters stability and trust.
To make this new beginning a success, we need enthusiastic teams who are ready to pitch in. As part of this corporate volunteering project, you’ll work together to mask up and paint the rooms. With every brushstroke, you’ll help create a bright, welcoming space where people feel welcome, secure and respected.
Your involvement not only supports the Living Museum Zurich but also strengthens team spirit: as a team, you make a visible impact, take on social responsibility and see firsthand how working together creates real social change.

Le Living Museum Zürich est un lieu ouvert et coloré qui permet à des adultes souffrant de troubles psychiques de s’exprimer librement par la création artistique, tout en leur offrant une communauté sociale solide. Il fait à la fois office d’atelier ouvert, d’espace artistique et de musée d’art contemporain, et entretient des échanges actifs avec le public.
