BELFAST-based EastSide Arts and inter-cultural theatre company Terra Nova Productions are looking for developing artists to take part in their Home Project. Both performance and visual artists can apply to take part in the annual project, which runs from October to March. This year's project will be based on the theme of 'Small Worlds'.

The project will give four developing artists the opportunity to work with a number of community groups within east Belfast. They will work alongside these groups in order to create new artwork.

An event held at the end of the project will allow the artists to showcase the work they have produced. The artists will receive training on facilitating a community workshop and producing a showcase event. They can also choose to receive mentoring from an established artist in dance, drama, visual art or music.

:: Deadline for submission is Friday October 12 at 5pm. Details and application forms at eastsidearts.net
