Australia Council's New Mentoring Program - Announced
The Australia Councils new national mentoring program for young and emerging artists, titled JUMP, brings the latest generation of artists across the country together with arts organisations and more established artists.
JUMP offers 30 young artists each year, a ten month mentoring partnership to build their professional skills, develop their arts practice in a chosen artform and create opportunities to collaborate across other artforms. Youth Arts Queensland will manage the national program and work with key state and territory partners who are able to respond to the identified needs of the artists.
Applications will be open in September 2009.
