Situated on a busy road in Walkden, near transport links to Bolton/Manchester/Salford and surrounding areas, we are looking to expand the team.
Open layout studio, currently with 2 stations free. Preferred 2+ Years of experience, NOT an apprenticeship position!
We offer a low weekly rent inclusive of all studio sundries (kitchen roll/cling film/vaseline etc) with the artist providing their own cartridges/inks!
We also offer 3 weeks a year holiday pay (no rent to pay for if you’re off on your jollies!)
And no pressure on hours/days. We encourage a new artist to work times that suit them!
