We are looking for applications from UK based people who have graduated from a BA, MA or City & Guilds in craft, art or design since 2021 for In:Site 2024, which is a practice and career development project for early career artists.
In:Site offers a rare opportunity for emerging artists, makers, designers and craftspeople to develop their practice to include working with people and communities by:
- Encouraging you to explore your practice in participatory and site responsive contexts, working directly with people.
- Providing support, expertise, time and resources for you to adapt the ideas, materials and techniques used in your work to create a space for people to explore their own creativity.
- Providing career and practice development support through In:Site Learn, broadening your idea of what a creative career looks like, and helping you to navigate early career decisions. We offer each artist:
- A commission to deliver a one-day engagement project in Birmingham's Cathedral Square between 21st and 24th May 2024.
You will receive £225 to cover half-day prep + one day delivery of your project, plus a £50 materials budget. All travel and accommodation (where needed) will be covered by Craftspace.
- A place on In:Site Learn, a programme of practice and career focused talks and mentoring. Contributors represent a range of disciplines, material practices and contexts for art, craft and design.
