We're always keen to meet and work with new people. This means there are opportunities for you to get involved by putting on an exhibition or event, coming to us with an original collaboration or volunteering with the day to day running of the organisation.
Get Involved
Some examples of the sort of opportunities we offer are detailed below but if you don’t see what you’re thinking of there, drop us an email on thefolks@emptyshop.org
Opportunities
- Volunteer – Empty Shop is a great place to volunteer and get some experience. You need to be friendly, driven, motivated, willing to learn and able to think on your feet. If you are interested please fill out an expression of interest form here
- Curate an exhibition - Occasionally we look for someone with an outside perspective and a particular type of vision to come in and curate one of our exhibitions. Email your CV and a curators statement to exhibitions@emptyshop.org to join our list of potential collaborators
- Lead a class/workshop – A number of people have ran or piloted classes and workshops at Empty Shop, and we are always open to suggestion. If you are skilled in particular area and would like to run a class or course, get in touch and we will work with you to try and make it happen.
- Use a space – Empty Shop is a resource for the production, exhibition and viewing of art. You can arrange to use an Empty Shop for anything you like as long as it’s art based; there are no panels to please and no opinions to conform to, it is truly accessible in this way.
