BRASS Producer 25 & 26

Notice Description

Durham BRASS Festival is a Durham County Council event which forms part of our NPO Arts Council England portfolio of festivals. We are seeking to continue our partnership to maintain continuity and consistency with Jennie Brewis as our freelance BRASS Producer for the 25 & 26 festivals. The role includes the programming of our children & young peoples programme and emerging artist events, developing the community engagement programme and bridging the gap between established artists in the main festival programme and our community work. The planning cycle for this festival is upwards of 18 months in advance to secure commissions and artists and we feel this is the best delivery model for the festival.
