SMART SCHOOL

what is a mentorship?

It's all about artistic AND professional development
  • 14 weeks of 3 hour sessions in a small group
  • Highly interactive online instruction tailored to your needs as an artist
  • Insight into the career and working life of your high level working professional artist mentor
  • A special industry guest who visits the class. These are often high level art directors or gallery directors. They see student work. They talk about what they are looking for. For beginner classes and techniques classes the guest is an artist who gives another perspective on what it's like to live as a professional artist in the field.
  • Watch another mentorship for FREE as your course audit! It's almost like a 2 for 1 deal. Course audits are a $495 value.
  • Free portfolio page (mentorships above beginner level)
  • Free entry into art prize competitions where MORE great art directors/arts professionals see your work. We have held these competitions every six months since July 2020. (mentorships above beginner level)

We are an artist-run school and we know how to help you succeed. Our alumni do succeed. Check out the the Alumni Portfolios page and Alumni News page.
