Yellowzine is a print and online publication that gives ethnic minority creatives a platform to showcase their artwork. We are committed to supporting the contemporary movement for the progression of art by African, Caribbean and Asian diaspora artists.
In 2019, we’re taking our ambition one step further by collaborating with creative agency The Brooklyn Brothers to educate and empower a more ethnically diverse talent pool for the creative industry.
Organisations within the creative industry have an underrepresentation of creative talent from minority backgrounds. To help fix this we want to give talent that might otherwise not have the opportunity, the chance to get a foot in the door of the industry.
Night School is a free eight-week training programme in London designed to educate and empower a more ethnically-diverse talent pool for the creative industry. Open to all 18-25 year-olds from ethnic minority backgrounds, Night School will help to unlock creative potential, provide core skills and even open doors to a future career. No experience or knowledge of the creative industries is required. All that’s needed is a curious mind, a can-do attitude and eight free evenings across July, August & Septmber 2019.
Working in the creative and advertising industry means you get to work for one of the fastest growing sectors in the UK. You’ll have the opportunity to work on a range of brands and choose a role from a broad selection of disciplines. Each day typically brings new challenges (and opportunities) which you’ll enjoy with fun, inspiring and like-minded colleagues. Oh, and you can wear sneakers to work – what’s not to like?
- A personal manifesto that can form the foundation of a modern CV
- Written recommendations from contributing mentors and partners
- Unique skill set that will give you a head start in the industry
- A graduation ceremony and platform to present your manifesto to industry contacts, media, agencies and recruiters
- A personal mentor for the next 12 months
