Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
NCWCA Mentorship Program
NCWCA pairs five experienced NCWCA members with 5 emerging Bay Area female-identifying artists, curators, art teachers, art historians, and/or aspiring gallerists. Mentor pairings will last six months from January to June so mentors and mentees have a chance to establish a meaningful one-on-one relationship. Mentorship goals will center around artistic critique, professional practices, goal-setting, networking, and the like.
We believe that introducing emerging women artists to experienced role models will help the mentees achieve a rewarding career in the arts. Of course, mentoring is a two-way street and our mentors will have lots to learn from the pairing as well.
