Job Summary

We are looking for a creative freelancer who is based in or has a connection to Hull to work with young people over the course of 8 weeks in consecutive weekly sessions to share your creative skills and give access to your creative profession for young people aged between 16-25.

Job Description

This project aims to allow young people to develop creative skills and engage in sessions where they can learn and experience a specific creative skill from an industry professional without having the pressure of making something at the end. It is more about the experience, trying something new and getting to work with a local creative professional.

We are not looking for any projects related to music for this call out; we are looking for any other creative disciplines so that young people can learn skills in other areas besides music as we already have a heavy music offer.

We are interested in hearing from freelancers with all types of skills (except music), and we have access to different creative spaces to facilitate this: a dance studio, black box theatre space, an art space and our digital hub, The Curve. This means we can facilitate many different creative skills within our building.

Agreed fee for the whole 8 week project is £1560; £125 per half day fora 3-hour afternoon session plus £70 planning fee (2hrs) per week.

The delivery budget to execute all other elements and resources for the project isadditional £1500. Your proposal must realistically fit into this budget.

Please note: you will not have to consider costs for spaces/equipment that we have available in The Warren into your budget.

- Plan and facilitate engaging sessions that allow young people to build their creative and communication skills whilst adhering to our ethos.

- Have or be willing to undergo a DBS check.

- Be registered as self-employed and be responsible for your own tax contributions.

-Propose realistic, yet exciting sessions that allow young people to experience an element of your industry that aligns with your professional skillset as well as being within the budget.
