Description

Warwick Arts Centre has an exciting opportunity for a Creative Learning Coordinator.

They are on a mission to create a dynamic, relevant, and artistically ambitious and sustainable arts centre and we need more great people to help us achieve our plans.

We believe that the arts are an extraordinary source of wisdom, support, connection, understanding, joy and inspiration for each and every one of us.

It's our job to bring art into more people's lives and the position of Creative Learning Coordinator will support our team in achieving this.

We are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels they belong, a place of fairness and equity and to be an organisation that reflects the diversity of its city.

If this sounds like somewhere you would like to work, we would like to hear from you.

Warwick Arts Centre develops and delivers exceptional participatory, audience and visitor experiences with the following priorities in mind:

Delivering a creative learning and audience development programme made and co-designed with communities and schools in areas of low engagement with the arts locally.
Delivering a wide programme of participatory events which includes off and on stage activity at Warwick Arts Centre, involving local communities, schools and students.
Deliver a programme of activities and events with, by and for residents and creatives which animate our foyer spaces and transform it from a transitioning space to a vibrant social hub a venue for all our communities.
Programming artistic work across all artforms to cater for and respond to local and national audiences and visitors. Ranging from work requiring investment to commercial, high risk to mainstream, young to seasoned and to include local, national and international.
Supporting talent development at all levels/stages. Providing free space, advice and guidance, networking, skills and knowledge exchange opportunities. Partner with associate producers and other partners to provide artist and new work development opportunities.
