Summer 2024 Mentorship
This program allows teen artists of color to hone their artwork under the guidance of professional mentors. Teens will be put into either a visual arts, writing, or performing arts cohort, and each group will be paired with a professional mentor of color to build their artistic skills. Teens will also have the opportunity to hear from BIPOC industry experts and participate in skill-building workshops.
The program meets for five sessions on Tuesdays (July 9th, 16th, 23rd, and 30th; August 6th) from 10 AM to 1 PM PST and two sessions on Thursdays (July 18th, August 1st) from 10 to 11:30 AM PST. Depending on applicant interest, meetings will take place online or in person in Seattle, WA (if meetings take place in person, transportation stipends will be provided). M-TAC teens have the opportunity to earn up to $250 for their participation throughout the program.
If you think the M-TAC program is for you, apply here! Deadline: 11:59 PM PST, May 17th.
