The Mentoring Program for Immigrant Artists pairs foreign-born artists with 2008 NYFA Fellows who act as their Mentors for a period of six months, beginning in Janaury 2009, to assist them in gaining broader access to the New York art world. Mentors also help their Mentees achieve a specific goal, such as writing an artist statement, creating a marketing brochure, or completing a grant application. Our goal is to help immigrant artists acquire some of the skills necessary to fairly compete and ultimately succeed as artists.
