About New Creatives: Real Living Wage Traineeships
New Creatives is a training and mentorship programme that is helping to kick start the careers of four emerging artists in Calderdale. During a six-month paid placement, the artists have the opportunity to earn, learn and create at the same time. They gain valuable skills and mentoring tailored to their practise and are supported in developing a new cultural activity that will engage and inspire the people of Calderdale to be more creative in their everyday lives. With the support of Calderdale Metropolitan Borough Council’s Culture Grants, New Creatives seeks to address some of the challenges and barriers that exist in the cultural sector by empowering the next generation of visual artists underrepresented by the cultural sector.
