Sustained Artist Mentorship Program
Remai Modern’s Sustained Artist Mentorship Program supports local artists working in the realm of performance and public practice. The program engages artists for a one-year period.
Successful applicants receive financial supports, access to museum resources and professional development opportunities. The museum works in collaboration with each artist to develop a program that includes research, public engagement such as artist talks or workshops, and the development and presentation of new work or work in progress. The program requires some group participation with other program artists, guest contributors and museum staff.
Participating artists receive a fee of $12,000 payable in three instalments. The museum also pays fees for public engagements as appropriate. In addition, artists receive a Remai Modern membership, access to staff insight and expertise and mentorship opportunities with visiting artists, cultural workers and other community leaders.
