One-to-one mentoring sessions with Open School East’s programming team. Mentoring sessions provide long-term, practice-based guidance and technical support, and hold discussions around sustainable artistic practice and professional development.

Mentoring is offered to two Associate alumni for a 6 month period. The programme operates on a rolling basis, with a callout for the next group of alumni taking place in months 4 & 5. 

Mentoring sessions are held monthly and can be offered as either online sessions or in person at Open School East (or a mixture of the two).
