Festival Artist Liason - Closing date Friday 06 Oct 2023
Yorkshire Festival of Story runs from 3rd to 19th November. The festival is our boldest and most ambitious yet, taking place in Settle and Skipton and online with artists from India, China, USA, Bhutan, Guatemala, Sierra Leone and all over the UK.
There will be music, theatre, storytelling, comedy, talks and workshops for adults and children.
We are looking for people who have an interest in socially-conscious performance and would love to get involved. Volunteers will welcome artists to the Dales, spread the word about the festival, and support the delivery of festival shows and events.
Are you based in the Craven area with a passion for arts & culture? Then this could be the role for you! Being a Volunteer is a great way to meet new people, gain festival experience, and be part of bringing a major cultural event to the Dales.
Headliners include Professor Jack Zipes, the critically acclaimed Marina Warner, Reg Meuross, Debs Newbold, Nesta Gomez, Miss Nobodies, Tariq Mehmood, Alan Donegan, Jeremy Dyson and Andy Nyman, Sudha Bhuchar, Amy White, and our very own Sita Brand.
You will need to be able to drive and have access to a car. We are looking for 3 people who can share the role across the festival period. You will be meeting artists, taking them to venues or their accomodation and being a point of contact for them for the festival.
