ONE 2 ONE GRANT MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

Be a mentor or get a mentor!

The One 2 One Grant Mentorship Program matches experienced grant writers with emerging media artists and art collectives, to provide personalized support specific to each individual’s need. AMAAS reviews the mentor and mentee applications and makes pairings based on the media artist/collective’s need and the grant writer’s area of expertise. Mentoring sessions can be conducted via phone, email, online or in-person dependent on the mentors/mentees.
