WOW x ROAR

We’re looking for ROAR Members to form a collective with the goal of creating a piece of artwork for our WOW x ROAR exhibition in May. You will be tasked with coming up with the theme of the overall exhibition and creating a piece of work to show. This work can be in any format, but must be created as part of a collective by ROAR Members. There is a budget for this artwork, to be democratically spent on resources, artist fees and materials. We are looking to champion female, trans and non-binary artists to shape this collective, as well as encouraging allies of all genders to participate. This opportunity is only open to ROAR Members.

About the WOW Festival:

The WOW Rotherham festival is a vibrant, colourful, bold, fun, and fearless celebration of women, girls, trans and non-binary communities. It's a unique event that connects Rotherham to other women and girls across the globe as part of the WOW – Women of the World family.

Opportunity Details:

We're seeking to create a collaborative piece of art to be part of our WOW x ROAR exhibition that embodies the spirit of WOW – celebrating diversity, empowerment, and the voices of women, girls, trans, and non-binary individuals. We are looking for collaborators to form a collective, people who want to work together on something amazing. This is your chance to showcase your creativity and contribute to a meaningful cultural exchange.
