Figment Arts is looking for enthusiastic volunteers to support three exciting community-driven projects: Port Stories, Eastbrook Manor Community Art Space, and Figment Arts Studio. This is a great opportunity to gain experience in arts and community engagement while making a meaningful difference in your local area.
Port Stories– A creative exploration of Shoreham Harbour’s 250-year heritage, using audio recording, soundscapes, photography, and creative mapping to uncover the port’s untold stories. This 12-month project will culminate in a series of interactive audio walks and public events.
Eastbrook Manor Community Art Space– A permanent creative hub designed to bring local residents together through hands-on workshops, exhibitions, and artist-led sessions. This project will run for 10 months, supporting up to 450 participants through accessible, inclusive art activities.
Figment Arts Studio– A dedicated creative space supporting disabled and neurodivergent artists. The studio provides a nurturing environment where artists can explore and develop their work through mentoring, residencies, and collaborative opportunities. Volunteers will assist with studio facilitation, event coordination, and artist support.
We are looking for volunteers to help with a variety of tasks, including:
No prior experience in the arts is necessary—just a willingness to get involved and a passion for community engagement. We welcome volunteers of all backgrounds and abilities, including those with lived experience of disability or neurodivergence.
