Dyffryn Dyfodol are looking for Welsh speaking creatives to work with them at the Llanrwst Rural Show later this month.
As part of big community consultation, they want to explore things with the attendees, including what’s important to them and how they want to shape the future – all in a creative and fun way.
Those invited to apply are not being tied to any particular artform, activity or output – and Dyffryn Dyfodol are leaving the ideas to you.
"We’re interested in ideas that engage with people, start thinking about things differently and give a platform to share ideas. It does not have to be a creative arts activity, it doesn’t mean creating something, an object or finished piece of work, it’s more about the experience people have with us.
"We would like to hear about what you are interested in doing with people at the event. We can assist in supporting, exploring and developing initial ideas. We’re interested in doing things differently with creatives and communities.
"We would love to hear from you as soon as possible and by 12pm on Monday 23 May 2022 at the latest and you need to be available for the whole day of Saturday 25th June 2022 8am – 5pm."
If your application is successful and you end up attending, a fee of £500 will be payable. This includes your research, development and preparation time as well as the day of activity. There will be additional materials and project budget available of up to £200.

- Welsh speaking creative people
- People who are comfortable engaging and approaching people.
- Creative people who are interested in making interesting things happen.
- People who have or want a connection with the event area.
