“Many artists have been forced to cancel and postpone event based presentations, exhibitions, and other activities essential to their professional practices as a result of COVID-19. Many have had to pivot or shift their approach as a result. In partnership with North York Arts, we’ve launched a digital Mentor in Residence program to support artists in the reimagining of their work. 

The Mentor in Residence program assists artists working in all disciplines by providing mentorship support in career planning, project development and entrepreneurial skills through virtual consultation sessions with industry professionals.

Mentor meetings are being delivered over Zoom, Google Meets and/or phone calls while we observe physical distancing. Let us know if there is a different method of technology that works best for you when you connect with your mentor. You can note your preferred method of communication and any accommodation requests when you register.”
