Brick Project are looking for Assistant Artist Facilitators to engage passers-by and invited participants to paint a brick each at Glen Park Avenue steps in Plymouth. This is a Mayflower 400 Community Sparks project.

We will be creating a giant public mural one brick at a time, around the loose theme of ‘What do you love about Plymouth?’.

To apply please email us with a CV and covering letter outlining how your skills and experience match with the role description, by 9am on Wednesday 12th May.

Who are we looking for?
You will be an excellent communicator with experience of community engagement. You will be conversant in working in a busy fast-paced environment, briefing the public, preparing equipment and making sure you are Covid safe at all times. As we are inviting many diverse groups to take part, from schools and colleges, to residents in homeless shelters and with physical disabilities, you will be fully supportive of equal opportunities and a champion for diversity.

You will have experience of briefing members of the public in taking part in activities. If you have specific experience of engaging the public in a painting activity and/or preparing and using acrylic paints, we would love to hear about this. If you don’t have experience in this particular area, we would love to hear about your experience of enthusing members of the general public. There is no such thing as a bad painting and the main focus of this role will be in building confidence in members of the public to unleash their creativity!
