Calling creatives to develop new ways to tell our story! 

Richmond Arts Service is seeking a freelance artist with experience and/or an interest in working with communities to evaluate and develop our public–facing storytelling programme at Orleans House Gallery.

At present our stories are shared with audiences via a mixture of informal conversations with volunteers and front-of-house staff, volunteer-led history tours, our digital platforms, and physical interpretation on site. We would like to update our storytelling experiences using creative, playful and experimental techniques, and include voices not previously heard including but not exclusively; our artists, our communities, wider ecosystem (non-humans), our volunteers and lesser-known residents of Orleans House.    

Please download the brief for more information, including instructions on how to apply:

We are keen to work with artists from a variety of backgrounds with different skills, stories and experiences. Applications are encouraged regardless of age, caring responsibilities, disability, sex, gender identity, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, and sexual orientation.   

Deadline for applications is 9am, Monday 28 November 2022.
