Creative Workshop Leader Callout

Curiosity Productions are looking for creative workshop leaders for Curiosity Club holiday activities in August and a new Saturday Club starting in September. 

Curiosity Club provides playful, inclusive, creative opportunities for children in Heath Town, Wolverhampton. Participants include children who have additional emotional and support needs and children who are care-experienced. The Saturday Club builds on our Curiosity Club holiday activities, which we have been delivering in Heath Town since 2023.

Proposals are invited for the following:

August Curiosity Club: 
1 workshop for 5-7 year olds (45-60 mins) and 1 workshop for 8-13 year olds (45-60 mins). Both delivered on the same day 11am-12pm and 1pm-2pm. Fee £150. Lunch also provided.

Each week has a different theme, and we invite proposals to fit with these themes:
11th - 14th August – Fantasy and sci-fi (creating imaginary worlds and creatures)
18th - 21st August – Wellbeing week (looking after ourselves and each other)
26th - 29th August – Puppetry festival (making and performing with puppets)

Please give availability for the week your workshop best fits into between 11th and 29th August 2025.

Saturday Curiosity Club: 
2 consecutive Saturdays. On each Saturday delivering 1 workshop for 5-8 year olds (45-60 mins) and 1 workshop for 9-16 year olds (45-60 mins). Both delivered on the same day 1.30pm-2.30pm and 3pm-4pm on two consecutive Saturdays. Fee £300 for 2 Saturdays.

We don’t currently have specific themes for the Saturday club sessions, feel free to propose a theme for your workshops if you wish.

Please give availability on Saturdays between 13th September and 13th December 2025.

All workshops to take place at St Patrick’s Church Hall, Heath Town, Wolverhampton, WV10 0QQ (near New Cross Hospital and Bentley Bridge)
