Creative summer placement programme

Get paid experience in the creative industry

Breaking into the creative sector can be very competitive, which is why we have teamed up with Lakeside Arts to help you get paid experience working in local creative organisations.

I created social media content on Instagram and Facebook. I designed promotional emails that were sent out to thousands of people. In addition, I updated Lakeside’s entire press list and formed relationships with local press. I could go on and on as I achieved so much in
just over a month.
