iPad as a community device

I want to set up my old iPad as a community device. I plan to mount it in the kitchen and want to use it for recipes, streaming music and television. I don't want to use my Apple ID or anyone else in the family. Can I create a new ID? Will I need a new phone number and email address?

iPad (6th gen) WiFi

Yes.

Phone number, no. Email address: yes. You will need a new email address to create a new Apple ID.
