Freelance Full Time 1 year Contract (fixed fee) £30,000
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an ambitious, innovative and highly motivated individual to support the delivery of Longbridge Light Festival by WERK.
Celebrating the area’s unique past, present and future, Longbridge Light Festival (LLF) highlights a long-term contemporary art project by WERK embedded within one of the UK’s largest regeneration schemes. LLF 2016 builds upon the success of the inaugural festival in 2014, which attracted 5,500 people to experience new light based artwork created by 19 regional, national and internationally based artists, 34 collaborative festival fringe events and an international conference that explored best practice within the areas of art, architecture, urban design and regeneration. The Festival is presented in public space and multiple venues across Longbridge through valued partnership working.
The Festival Producer will play a central role in enabling WERK to realise the LLF 2016 vision and its extended ongoing programme of work, working collaboratively with the existing team, alongside key stakeholders and local partnerships which include schools, community groups and local businesses.
