What will we create?

We're aiming high! Together we’ll transform a building with historical and cultural significance into a breathtaking work of street art. With our innovative use of augmented reality technology, we'll also elevate it to a whole new immersive level too!

What’s in it for you?

This is your chance to be part of a collaborative process that will create something truly impactful. You'll get the opportunity to work alongside Joe Caslin to develop key concepts, themes, and designs, giving you the chance to express your perspectives and make your mark.

Do you need any experience or skills?

You don't need any particular experience or skills to get involved. We want to hear from young people aged 18-25 from all walks of life who are committed to change and want their voice heard. We're creating an inclusive environment where you can feel safe, resourced and empowered to fully express yourself and make meaningful contributions to this exciting project.

Why are we doing this?

Northern Ireland has come a long way since the Good Friday Agreement, but we know there is still work to be done to heal and move forward as a community. That's why we're embarking on this exciting project — to create a powerful symbol of hope and resilience that celebrates the progress we've made while acknowledging the challenges we still face as a post-conflict society.

What time commitment will it involve?

The team will hold a series of workshops throughout 2023 and 2024 to co-design and co-create the artwork.

I’m in! How do I apply?

We can’t wait to see what we achieve together! Register for this unique opportunity.
