Skills Exchange Workshops
Blackletter are organising a skills exchange project called '10x10x10', to take place in Autumn 2007
We are looking for proposals from artists or other interested parties who have an interesting or useful skill to share. 10 people will be selected to deliver 10 workshops over 10 weeks. Participants will receive a fee at the equivalent to a part-time lecturing rate for their workshop and preparation time. There is also a small budget available for equipment and materials depending on the nature of the proposal.

The idea is to pool interesting skills and support exchange among artists. Anything which you feel might excite the interest of an eclectic mix of personalities is welcome. Blackletter will record the workshops and distribute an edited version for free on our website.
Proposals should take the form of a short email outlining the nature of the presentation you would like to make, explain how you think that might be best facilitated and what, if any, extra budget might be needed for equipment and materials. Please include mention of any other considerations that apply to your proposal. Include your contact details and don't forget to attach your current CV.
Please note: practical workshops will be favoured over computer based approaches where possible. Software demonstrations will not generally be accepted.
Deadline for receipt of proposals by is 10/August/2007.
