What's On & Current opportunities

Conveniently located at 64 Bay View Terrace, the newly refurbished Bay View Community Centre will provide a premium facility on offer for various community groups and individuals.

The Town is now seeking expressions of interest for those artists (including performance artists) interested in hosting both one-off and regular workshops at this new community facility.

Please complete the following form to indicate your expression of interest here.

The Town of Claremont is excited to provide a young aspiring artist with the opportunity to grow their skills and gain invaluable experience in a paid mentorship initiative. 

The initiative will see a young person aged 16-25 years work alongside an experienced mural artist to create a new public art mural at our new Bay View Community Centre. 

Bay View Community Centre is our recently refurbished community centre, overlooking the beautiful Claremont Park. The space attracts a diverse range of community members throughout the day, providing great exposure for the awarded artist. 

This mentorship covers all the steps of designing, creating and painting the mural. 

The vision for this new public art mural is to provide an inspiring and visually appealing addition to enhance the experience of community members visiting the centre. 

The initiative is open to any Town of Claremont young person aged 16-25 years. The successful person will be paid a Mentee Artist Fee of $1,000.00 (ex GST) for their contribution to the creation of the new public artwork mural. 

To submit your application: Those interested in applying should send a cover letter (max 2 pages) explaining the motivation behind their submission and being involved in this paid art opportunity. Applicants must also include up to six images of previous artworks(s) they have created that demonstrate artistic style, ability and quality of work. 

Submissions should be sent to artawards@claremont.wa.gov.au. 

Submissions close at 4pm on Friday 21 February 2025.
