printhaus mentor scheme
We are excited to announce the launch of our new targeted mentoring programme.
The aim of this programme is to enable two potential artist and makers to find their voice through a supportive and in-depth period of mentoring and self-development. By working with participants and giving them agency and input into their own progress, we envisage helping participants on to a creative pathway that will enrich their lives and open up new opportunities.
The opportunity is open to individuals from any background and level of experience, but we are interested in providing opportunities for those that may not have had access previously or have felt excluded for any reason. We will be prioritising applications from individuals from under represented backgrounds.
We are particularly excited to hear from and work with aspiring artists and makers from marginalised or disadvantaged communities:
Ethnically and culturally diverse people that have traditionally experienced difficulty / barriers when accessing opportunities / D/deaf, disabled and neurodiverse people that have traditionally experienced difficulty / barriers when accessing opportunities / people from an LBTQ+ background that have traditionally experienced difficulty / barriers when accessing opportunities / young people not in education, employment or training as well as older adults not in employment / older people / single parents
