SalaryAbout us
Made With Many is a programme of new arts activities focusing on working with local communities, artists, arts and voluntary organisations, businesses and the public in Corby and Wellingborough to ensure that the arts are at the heart of positive change.
Family Arts Festival is an event for children under the age of 10 and their families to engage in different art activities from music, dance, craft and installations. We are looking for a storyteller to write and perform stories based on themes and ideas that our youngest audiences have chosen as their favourite things in this world.
In preparation for this commission we asked groups of early years children what their very favourite thing in the world was and we can share that you may well end up creating stories about dinosaurs, watermelons, racing cars or trains.
