E2M create safe, kind, welcoming spaces through its creative clubs and 5-week programs that result in community events (such as festivals, cabarets, fairs and markets) that are hosted by local artists and local businesses. All the activities are inclusive and free.
E2M is looking to support an intern to create a collaborative creative project with a group of 11–18-year-olds in June / July 2026. This can tie in with the intern’s existing creative work, or they can create a brand-new piece in collaboration with E2M.
