MENTORING FOR ARTISTS

Support for your artistic goals and creativity

​
 
First Consultation FREE
​
Mentoring for artists is one-on-one support with a mentor to help with direction or concerns in your art career. These sessions are offered to emerging artists to further develop their art practice. These sessions aim to support artists with:

​

  • Editing artist statements, CVs and biography's 

  • Help ease fears and doubts around your art practice

  • Develop concepts and execute through your art. 

  • Organise and plan a creative project.

  • Provide general guidance and support for emerging art practitioners. 

​

Our objective is to assist and provide guidance, develop skills and knowledge for emerging artists. This service can be accessed through Skype, telephone, and email or face-to-face meetings (if living in the Brisbane metropolitan area).

Why Initiate Mentoring

 

Lack of access to mentoring support for emerging artists is a significant issue nationwide. Mentoring programs offered in places like universities and arts councils are very competitive and as a result, many aspiring artists miss out on opportunities for extra guidance and assistance. Research suggests that mentoring, both in a formal and informal capacity is already a significant part of delivery for independent artists (Arts Queensland 2010). Therefore, artists can benefit from these experiences when building their art careers.
