A south Cumbria community group has announced a series of community-led projects and is urging artists to take part.
The Barra Culture programme, backed by Arts Council England, is on the lookout for creatives to collaborate with on four new commissions.
Each of the projects gets underway this summer, and applications for the paid-for commissions are open now.
They are:
Barrow’s Green Spaces – a collaboration with local residents, reimagining disused green spaces across the town. An inspirational environmental or outdoor artist is needed to help deliver a transformation of the space that will highlight the importance of outdoor cultural activities, with a focus on health and wellbeing. The project will culminate with a community celebration in early September.
