I think we have to define the reason behind your desire here: are you looking for relevant work experience for the function of procuring a job, or are you looking to educate yourself in that area so you can personally become better at it? If it is the latter, I would suggest that you find some local organization or non-profit groups that you could become a board member of. Obviously a group that does project-oriented things would be best, but festivals, film festivals or groups that hold fund-raising activities are all good places to get your feet wet in terms of managing a project and leading teams of people. It can also be an excellent networking opportunity, and the right employers look at voluntarism as a big plus, especially if you can use it to demonstrate leadership skill. Who knows, there may even be some larger groups or not-for profits that could benefit from some IT skills as well.
