Cove Park seeks to appoint three Embedded Artists, contracted over a seventeen-month period to work on the development & delivery of Collective Home, new engagement programme in Argyll & Bute.
Collective Home will reflect the distinct character and composition of our rural and coastal region. Through sustained projects devised collaboratively between creative practitioners and participating communities, we will explore what home means for young people in Argyll, for those facing the challenges of climate change, and for refugees settling in this region. Developed in partnership with local organisations, this work will harness the power of creativity and collective action to build community, foster cultural exchange, and enhance lives.
The Artists will be employed on a fixed term, part-time, and flexible basis from 1 June 2026 – 30 September 2027. The salary will be £36,668 (pro rata) in 2026, rising to £38,135 in 2027. The Artists will also receive a travel and expenses allowance.
We are keen to appoint individuals based in Argyll & Bute and based elsewhere in Scotland, with a range of creative practices, including but not limited to film and moving image, music, and sound.
The Embedded Artists will work with Cove Park and programme partners to further define, shape, and deliver this community‑focussed project in Argyll. Each Artist will benefit from residencies at Cove Park to support the development of their own work, and they will be joined as the programme develops by freelance artists employed to deliver specific aspects of this project.
The deadline is Monday 27 April 2026 at 17:00.
