Scene Stirling Culture Collective - Appel à candidatures pour les artistes

Scene Stirling Culture Collective is recruiting nine artists for a paid year of participatory arts: eight cohort artists and one Lead Artist, placed with nine host organisations across Stirling urban, rural and village communities from September 2026. This is part of Creative Scotland national Culture Collective programme, funded by the Scottish Government. Cohort artists are paid 300 GBP per day; the Lead Artist 350 GBP per day, each for 35 days, in line with Creative Scotland Fair Work First requirements. They are looking for artists and creative practitioners who want to work collaboratively with communities, across a range of practices and disciplines. There is no fixed skill-set required. A connection to Stirling is a plus, but not essential. Artists should have an interest and understanding of working in communities, and be open to collaboration with other artists, communities and host partners. The nine hosts and placement focuses include: Stirling Photography Festival (Festivals and Participatory Arts), Feis Fhoirt (Rural Gaelic Heritage and Culture), Stirling Pride and BHM Forth Valley (Equality, Diversity and Intersectionality), Good Green Futures / Transition Stirling (Climate Awareness and Community Action), GOSSIP Collective (Eastern Villages and Participatory Arts), University of Stirling (Culture on Campus and Community), Tolbooth / Stirling Council (Venues and Participatory Arts), Callander Community Development Trust (Rural Communities and Place-Making), and Artlink Central (Cultural Rucksack and Cohort Coordination - Lead Artist role). How to apply: Read the Open Call Brief and Easy Read Information Pack, then submit an application via the online form (Part A - scored application) and follow up with the Equal Opportunities Monitoring form (Part B - anonymous).
