Paper Trails Trainee Artists- Care Homes
Contract -Freelance (Sept-Dec)
Fee £4,400.00
Edinburgh Libraries' Mobile Library Service in collaboration with Edinburgh International Book Festival.

As part of our ambitious new programme Paper Trails - Edinburgh International Book Festival, in collaboration with Edinburgh Libraries' Mobile Library Service, is seeking to appoint two trainee artists to support our four writers in residence to deliver five-week creative projects in older people's residential care homes across Edinburgh. The projects will coincide with and enhance the visits from the libraries team. We want to bring the joy of the Book Festival to people across Edinburgh, who cannot come in person.
At the Book Festival, 'artist' encapsulates a diverse range of creative outputs: authors, illustrators, comic creators, spoken word artists, playwrights, visual artists, musicians and producing work for all ages of audiences and readers. For this role we are particularly interested in applications from early career artists who would like to develop experience of working with older people, people with dementia and people with age-related illness in residential settings.
Paper Trails is a new five-year project working in partnership with Edinburgh Libraries to co-design bold creative experiences with communities across the city to address local needs.

The deadline is Wednesday 17 September 2025 at 00:00.
