Project title TBC – Developed with creative practitioner.

Brief

RAMM is looking for a creative practitioner to develop a non-digital creative resource that visitors to RAMM can engage with independently, as part of their visit to the museum. The resource should use RAMM’s collection as inspiration, specifically objects that connect with the LGBTQ+ community. The resource should also form the basis of an engaging, creative workshop to attract families and individuals, across all age ranges. RAMM require you to deliver the workshop once during LGBT+ history month and once as part of the Exeter’s Pride weekend.

This work should build on RAMM’s Out and About: Queering the Museum project which empowered LGBTQ+ communities to uncover and create existing and new LGBTQ+ heritage at RAMM. More details can be found on the RAMM website - search 'out and about'.

Experience

Experience of developing and delivering creative, non-digital, interactive resources.
Experience of previously facilitating workshops with a range of ages.
In order to be considered you will need to be DBS checked.

Fee/Budget

Freelance Fee: £1,700 (inclusive of travel expenses). This should cover your creative development time for the resource, production time and delivery of the 2 workshops. You will be supported by museum staff with knowledge of collection. 
We have additional budget to cover any materials.
