TLC-St Luke’s is seeking a freelance artist to provide leadership and direction to their Arts Project, providing a solid foundation from which the project can grow and flourish.
TLC-St Luke’s is a small charity that has been delivering Arts and Mental Health Drop-In Projects for almost 30 years in the central Manchester area. They work with adults who experience mental or emotional distress, including some who have a psychiatric diagnosis.
Formerly based at a local church and community centre, we are now based in Ardwick and Longsight, working from community venues.
The Art Project works with a team of professional artists delivering arts projects to groups and individuals and is based at Pool Arts in Ardwick, our sister organisation. They work to improve the quality of life for people living in the community with a mental health problem through participation in the arts.
If you are a practising artist with knowledge and experience in:
- Facilitating artistic sessions
- Providing management and direction to a team
- Networking with local and national organisations, funders and individuals
- Fundraising
- Finance and governance of a charitable organisation
They would love to hear from you.
