Artist(s), creative practitioner, arts collective, curator, or arts organisation

The brief

We are recruiting an artist(s), a creative practitioner, an arts collective, a curator, or an arts organisation to work with young people in the Imaan Youth Club to co-create an immersive experience in a venue/location that will be determined by the successful candidate(s), representatives from the Imaan Youth Club and Reimagine Redditch.

The successful candidate(s) will have a socially engaged practice to co-create and co-produce the final event, which achieves the following aims:

1) Educational: to raise awareness of bees, grounded in the teaching of Surah an-Nahl, and to explore the importance of bees in the Quran and to the environment.

2) Community: to bring together Redditch communities to celebrate the talents and creativity of young Muslims in Redditch.

3) Environment: to inspire young people in Redditch to support the bee ecosystem and positively impact the environment.

We are open to applications from artist(s), creative practitioners, arts collectives, curators, and arts organisations from a range of arts disciplines and from a range of approaches.

The implemented vision will be inclusive, reflect and celebrate the talents of the Muslim young people and put this work in conversations with the wider Redditch community.
