GOING BEYOND MENTORSHIP
The professional artists program is for San Diego artists who don't necessarily need to take more classes but want to grow through community and professional critique. What's included:
• gallery representation • exhibit in any planned off-site shows • online visibility on our website • private consultations • showcased in gallery promotions • weekly Thursday sessions, 10:30am-1:30pm • lower gallery commission rates |
Learn under the guidance of owner and artist, Kate Ashton. Kate brings her years of experience in making a living as an artist to this amazing group of artists.
There are many talented art teachers, but few who are called to teach, to mentor, and to assist artists in taking their art to the marketplace. Being with an extraordinary arts community has been a great inspiration. Kate was honored to be one of the finalists chosen by Professional Artists Magazine, as Mentor of the Year and placed 12th in the nation. |
There is no application process for the professional artists program; artists are eligible to undergo a private interview process once the prerequisite has been met.
Artists looking to join this small, focused elite group can begin to prepare for the interview process by having a body of work ready to show and knowing where they would like to go in their career. The professional artist program requires an initial six-month commitment before proceeding on a month-to-month basis. |
