April 2021 an artist call out was shared on social media, via Jukebox Collective newsletter, Instagram and Twitter, inviting diverse Welsh artists to apply to share their vision of a truly diverse Wales, and take part in explore sessions. A bursary of £150 was offered to participants, to recognise the emotional labour involved in this work and value participants’ time commitment and knowledge shared. Applications were accepted in written format, or as video and audio recorded messages. (see call out in Appendix)
50 artists from across Wales applied to be part of the project and 37 were selected to participate with an eye to gathering a broad focus group, with a diverse balance of artforms, experience levels, socio-economic background, gender, sexuality, disability, ethnic background and geographic distribution of individuals.
