Finding a way into the arts and staying in the industry can be challenging.
That鈥檚 why it鈥檚 so important to have a good mentor, but they can be difficult to find.
So we at Arts Access are hosting an event in partnership with the Dallas Museum of Art on Feb. 4 called 鈥淢aking Mentorships Work.鈥� It鈥檒l kick off with a panel discussion with three North Texans in the arts who mentor and have been mentored: audio engineer Alexandra Pickens, known as XELA; Paulina Dosal-Terminel with Artstillery; and Matt Winn, who founded the independent artist- and label-services company IRAS.
Our discussion will cover topics like what to expect from a mentor-mentee relationship, the best places to network and how to be a good mentee.
Following the panel, audience members will be invited to join a 鈥渟peed mentoring鈥� event. Participants will have the opportunity to network with others in the North Texas arts scene and build connections that can eventually turn into mentor-mentee relationships.
Interested in coming to the panel discussion and networking event? You can RSVP .
Arts Access鈥� 鈥淢aking Mentorships Work鈥� event will be hosted in The Horchow Auditorium of the Dallas Museum of Art on Sunday, Feb. 4 at 2 p.m.
