Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society: Artist & Assistant for Fringe ASN

Closing date: Wed 19 Mar 2025: 9am

The Fringe Society is looking for a Scotland-based artist and an artist assistant to deliver a co-creative project with an ASN (Additional Support Needs) school in Edinburgh, as a part of their Fringe ASN project. This year they are working with Oaklands School, situated in the north-west of Edinburgh.

To enable more people to engage with the festival and encourage the next generation of Fringe performers and audiences, they are offering the opportunity for a Fringe artist to run a creative project with local children and young people from an Edinburgh ASN school. This is a great opportunity to engage with wider demographics, develop your practice and engage meaningfully with a local community in Edinburgh. 

Both roles are open to artists and facilitators who wish to develop their experience in working with children and young people with profound and multiple learning disabilities.

  • For the lead artist role, a basic level of experience in ASN settings is required, but you will be supported by an experienced mentor to learn more about working in these environments.
  • For the artist assistant, there is no requirement of experience in ASN settings, and it is a great opportunity to gain some hands-on experience.

To get full information on both roles, please visit the Fringe’s website at https://www.edfringe.com/experience/school-and-community-engagement/school-and-community-projects/fringe-asn/#ASN-2025.
