We are looking for a dynamic person with experience of working with schools and young people to work with The Showroom’s Director to develop and steer the Imagining Futures programme into its next phase of development.

The Showroom has received a grant from John Lyon’s Charity for its Imagining Futures pilot programme to test and implement a new phase of meaningful engagement with schools and young people in the Church Street Ward. As an established gallery in the wider London arts sector, The Showroom is a valuable resource that can provide a much-needed connection between young people and artists’ ideas and methods to entice creative thinking. This pilot will run for one year and seeks to research, develop and implement an education programme that will broaden and deepen relationships between The Showroom and its neighbourhood, Church Street, NW8, and help to support innovative participatory artistic practices.

The new Schools and Young People Curator will have a passion for programming activities for young people and a knowledge of our mission and history. Embedded in The Showroom team, the new Schools and Young People Curator will research and build a one-year pilot programme of educational activities at The Showroom that will serve as a template for more extended engagement depending on future funding provisions.
