Job Summary
Job Description
The West End Fair will be a celebration of creativity in Morecambe's West End, offering young people engaging ways to get involved in creative opportunities in exciting and accessible ways. The celebration event on Saturday 20th February will showcase work from young people and give members of the public the chance to try free drop-in workshops, led by the young people themselves, held around Morecambe's West End.
Job Requirements
We need artists to run creative workshops for 11-18-year-olds, fitting the following brief:
Fun & Creative: Workshops should focus on creative activities that young people wouldn't ordinarily have the chance to learn at school.
Accessible to All: The workshop should be able to be participated in by any and all 11-18s, with thought put into how to ensure the workshop is accessible
Celebrating Morecambe's West End: We encourage any ideas that are themed around celebrating Morecambe's West End and championing pride in the location's heritage
Clear Outcome: The young people should be able to "make" something by the end of the workshop. Be it a physical creation, a film, a performance or something else - the workshop should be focused around "making".
Job Responsibilities
All ideas meeting the brief will be presented to our Youth Board, who will decide which to proceed with.
If selected, you will be paid a day rate of £300 - this can be broken down into:
£150 for workshop delivery (half-day)
£150 for planning and prep (half-day)
We will require you to get an enhanced DBS check and complete mandatory safeguarding, GDPR and First Aid training with us. This won't incur any costs to you, but may require some time to complete or update ahead of working with us
You will be provided with support from assistants/volunteers, and given a materials budget to work with.
