SOLIHULL: THE CURATOR

[For a creative living or working in Solihull]

Are you a creative, compassionate storyteller passionate about elevating unheard voices? The Museum of Me in Solihull invites applications for a unique curatorial opportunity celebrating the rich, complex lives of newly resettled residents.

As curator, you’ll work with five individuals and their storytellers to co-create intimate exhibitions that reflect who each person is—if only for a day. Through empathy and collaboration, you’ll shape personal displays showcased over ten unforgettable days, with stories archived online as part of a growing anthology of everyday lives.

We’re seeking someone who’s a sensitive listener, bold creative, and efficient collaborator—able to balance humour, depth, and heart. If you're excited to connect across cultures and co-create meaningful narrative spaces, we want to hear from you.
