Outreach Assistant at The Ice House (with Out There Arts)

The Ice House is a Grade II listed building of brick construction with a thatched roof, once one of a pair, and now the only one of its kind left in the country. It's history is intertwined with the borough, its fishing industry and the railway. Out There have a vision and also significant funding to transform it into a National Centre for Outdoor Arts and Circus.

As part of the project and before major works start, Out There Arts will be researching the history of the building and educating local people about this historic community asset. This is a truly exciting opportunity for someone who loves history and talking to people from different backgrounds. It's also an incredible opportunity to learn new skills and gain experience.

The Outreach Assistant will help Out There get out into the community, improving the understanding of the Ice House's place in the history of Great Yarmouth. This role would be best suited for someone with previous experience of, or strong interest in, working with older people, diverse communities and young people. You will be:

• Supporting the workshop/activity facilitator to deliver activities
• Working with young people, older people, disabled people and international communities
• Participating and assisting with informal heritage learning activities

You will receive training and support, so this will not only be a really interesting opportunity, but the experience and skills gained in running educations workshops and working with a wide variety of people could be incredibly useful.
