“The Yukon Emerging Artist Program is an initiative of the Yukon Arts Centre supported by the RBC Foundation to support the professional development of Yukon artists by creating meaningful mentorship opportunities between emerging and established artists.  

We are pleased to present round two of this initiative. Emerging artists who participated in round one of the program are welcome to participate again. 

During this time of Covid-19, Yukon Arts Centre is proud to continue to support Yukon emerging artists in all genres (visual, performing, literary, and multi-media artistic practices) through our virtual Mentorship Program.

This program will provide honorarium of $500 for mentee and $500 for mentor/collaborator. Yukon emerging artists can apply through this program to propose a virtual mentorship or collaboration with an established CANADIAN artist.  There are no deadlines for completion though projects must be completed within a reasonable time frame.

The application deadline is rolling (ongoing).”
