Job Summary
Job Description
Are you a disabled artist with a bold idea for outdoor performance? We’re commissioning a new or existing 30-minute performance piece for ParkFest, a festival of open air and free cultural entertainment taking place in two outdoor spaces in Greenwich this September.
This is an open call, and you do not need to be local to apply. We are seeking proposals from artists or companies who self identify as disabled, whether emerging or established, with professional ambition and a strong creative vision.
The Festival will mark the second year in Tramshed’s three-year N’Abled partnership, a programme commissioned by Metro GAD and funded by the Rupert Prokofiev Award. The successful artist will be interviewed by the N’Abled Steering Board, a specific board of local disabled activists and members of Metro GAD who oversee this three-year project.
