The Ministry of Stories seeks Creative Intern

August 18th, 2011

Co-founded by Nick Hornby in 2010, The Ministry of Stories is a charity that aims to encourage young people to tell stories. It was inspired by the example of 826 Valencia in San Francisco, a creative haven for children established by American novelist Dave Eggars. Based in Hoxton, north London, the Ministry of Stories has a great programme of workshops and projects for young people, and they’re advertising for a creative intern to help. The work ranges from organizing storytelling and writing workshops in schools to working with artists and writers as well as directly developing and facilitating writing workshops. This is a great chance for someone to get in at the ground floor of an exciting new organisation. The deadline for applications is 7 September.
