Call for Proposals: Children’s Activity Book

As part of Ouseburn Farm’s 50th anniversary in 2026, we are seeking proposals from illustrators/designers to create a children’s colouring and activity book celebrating the farm’s past, present and future.

The project will be co-created with young people through creative workshops and will result in a 24-page activity book featuring animal and gardening-themed scenes inspired by Ouseburn Farm’s past, present, and future.

This is a flexible, part-time opportunity for a creative practitioner with relevant experience in illustration, design and participatory work with children.

Please take a look at the project brief to learn more.
