Opportunity for artists passionate about developing performances for young audiences
Baboró seeks two artists to participate in professional development workshops hosted by international European festivals.
Selected artists will:
- Participate in two 5-day practical sessions in 2025 with a cohort of 11 other professional artists from across Europe;
- Experience two European children’s arts festivals with their workshop cohort;
- Receive a daily fee of €200 to cover workshop and travel days. The cost of all travel, accommodation and festival tickets will be covered.
This opportunity is made possible through Baboró’s partnership with BABEL, a 4-year Creative Europe project emphasising communication and multilingualism in Theatre for Young Audiences (TYA).
Is this opportunity for you?
Baboró strives to make sure that all children in Ireland see themselves and their stories reflected in the arts. They endeavour to deliver projects and present performances which reflect the diversity of the Ireland we live in today. They strongly encourage artists from currently underrepresented backgrounds to apply.
