Thank you so much to @_sarah_fraser for welcoming our women’s group #SMUT to your beautiful studio this evening for a life drawing and sculpting session with clay. Everyone loved the peaceful and productive time together and some brilliant artworks were made. Thank you too to our wonderful model, Karen for sitting for us.

We are looking for a graphic designer or illustrator in the West Midlands to collaborate with our Youth Board as part of a small project to create a visual identity for the Youth Board and campaign materials for an upcoming youth-led social action project in our neighbourhood.

This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside young people who are passionate about making change in their community. We’re looking for a designer or illustrator who values collaboration and can work with our young people to turn their ideas into a bold, authentic, and engaging visual identity. This new social action campaign will amplify youth voice and address issues identified by the board. The designer will play a key role in helping bring this vision to life.
