We are looking for an enthusiastic artist to work with us during the Geopark Festival 2009!

'Art on the Prom' will take place on Wednesday 27th May in Torquay (Please note: it is likely that the workshop will take place outside, weather permitting).
The artist will be accompanied by a member of staff for the duration of the workshop.

We would like to involve as many people as possible over the course of the day to produce a/some large interconnected art which can later be displayed to promote the Geopark and/or individual pieces that children are able to complete quickly at the workshop and later take home.

For the full day of workshops, we are able to provide the appointed artist with a fee of £180.00, an additional £100.00 for resources and a contribution towards travel expenses.

If you are interesting in applying, please send your ideas to: Geopark Festival Artist Applications, English Riviera Geopark Organisation, The Seashore Centre, Goodrington, Paignton, TQ4 6LP.

The deadline for applications is Friday 17th April 2009

As these workshops will involve working with children and young people, please do remember to enclose a copy of your CV and a recent CRB check. We would also like to know whether or not you have your own insurance.

We are looking for innovative ideas that take into consideration the aim of the Festival as well as the overall Geopark concept.

We look forward to hearing from you!

If you have any queries, please call Anna Whitehead on 01803 208861 or Emily Beale on 01803 528841.
