What is Creative Calling -
Careers for the Curious?
Creative Calling - Careers for the Curious is a new initiative piloted by Creative Ireland, with support from Screen Ireland, the Arts Council, and Coimisiún na Meán, and managed by Cultural and Creative Industries Skillnet.
The aim of the Creative Calling - Careers for the Curious pilot project is to make young people more aware of the various career opportunities that exist across the creative sector. By mapping out what is already happening, scoping what could be done in the future, and taking part in some key events, the Creative Calling - Careers for the Curious pilot programme will set the groundwork for meaningful future developments in this space.
What are the creative industries?
The creative sectors incorporated in our programme include: film and tv; animation, VFX, and post-production; digital creative industries; art, design, and architecture; performance and music; writing, journalism, and media.
