WHAT IS CAREER MENTORSHIP?

SGC International is an educational non-profit organization committed to informing our membership about issues and processes concerning original prints, drawings, book arts, and handmade paper. SGCI is pleased to continue the Career Mentoring Services at the 2018 Conference. Services are provided at no cost to SGCI members attending the conference. Mentoring services are available for individuals at all stages of their careers – whether you are an undergraduate student thinking about an MFA, a graduate student seeking career advice, an independent artist looking to start a press, or someone in a tenure-track position looking for advice about navigating academia. There are a limited number of spots, so sign up will be first-come, first-served until sessions are full.

Mentor Sessions will be held in Skyview I at the Bally’s Hotel.

TOPICS

Mentoring Topics include (but are not limited to):

- Artist Portfolio Reviews

- Career Advice for Emerging and Mid-Career Artists

- Tenure and Academic Advancement

- Independent Presses, Non-Profits, and Community-Based Art

SESSION TIMES

Mentor sessions are 20 minutes in duration. Mentors meet with each member individually.

Sessions will take place within the following times:

Thursday, April 5: 11 am - 4 pm

Friday, April 6: 11 am - 4 pm

COST

Free! There is no cost for any SGCI Member to register for a Career Mentor Session.
