We are looking for a creative individual with a creative background/skills. Here at ArtWorks, we encourage our Artists with a learning disability and/or who are autistic to try as many different creative practices as possible. To be able to do so, we require our team to possess experience in a range of different creative techniques. We're looking for individuals who are interested in art, photography, filmmaking, sculpture, animation, or textiles, to name a few. In particular, candidates who are confident using Adobe Photoshop are encouraged to apply to this role. A creative degree is preferred; however, we will also consider candidates with a creative background with no degree.

As a Creative Art Workshop Leader, you will be running workshops, creative volunteer placements and community projects for Artists with learning disabilities and/or who are autistic. This means it is vital that candidates are highly organised and have the ability to anticipate future tasks, whilst also considering current commitments. At each location, you will be part of a team of like-minded creatives who run the day-to-day art activities for between ten and twenty artists with learning disabilities and/or who are autistic. A normal day at ArtWorks could involve supporting another workshop leader to run a workshop, working on commissioned work, such as merchandise or a mural off-site, or running your own creative workshop - with or without support, depending on the activity and group size. This means we're looking for someone who is capable of adapting quickly to the task at hand and consistently builds inventive workshops for our Artists.

An important part of the role is supporting our artists to fulfil their dreams, aspirations and supporting the creation of opportunities for their work to be exhibited. This role allows for creative and practical development. We will provide you with care and comprehensive first-aid training.
