Platform and Starcatchers commission Early Years Artist(s) for 2026

Platform and Starcatchers are celebrating their 20th anniversaries in 2026!

As part of a series of celebrations (watch this space!),  we are commissioning an Early Years Artist/s to develop a new and original event for early years audiences that will be shared as part of Made in Easterhouse 20:26 - a programme of work featuring 26 creative projects marking our 20th anniversary.

If you are an artist interested in working with early years audiences, click here for more information / to apply. Deadline for applications is Friday January 9 2026.

We are especially keen to engage an artist from a background typically underrepresented in early years arts. This commission is open to artists from marginalised backgrounds, specifically global majority artists, disabled artists, d/Deaf artists and/or artists from working-class backgrounds.
