Open Call for Artists, Facilitators and Freelancers
Do you enjoy running creative workshops?
Are you passionate about improving your own and others’ well-being and mental health through creative activities?
Come and join our Ar y Dibyn wellbeing project. Ar y Dibyn offers an opportunity for people affected by addiction (be it directly or if a member of your family, friend, neighbour or similar has been affected) to come together and process life experiences through creativity. We offer a safe environment, and challenge the taboo around addiction as well as challenging the belief that addiction is a choice rather than a way of surviving or dulling pain.
We are looking for empathetic, sensitive and creative individuals to run workshops and projects under the wider umbrella of Ar y Dibyn.
New artists are welcome. Under the care of Iola Ynyr, our lead artist, you can refine your skills and blossom as an artist and facilitator.
