IMPORTANT MENTORING SESSION INFORMATION

One-on-one, 20-minute sessions with the international guests (critics, program directors, curators, etc.) will take place throughout the Conference. You must have a Conference badge to enter the mentoring sessions: Mentoring sessions are only available to Conference attendees. During these sessions, the international guests will be available to look at attendees’ portfolios. These sessions are available for an additional $25 on a first-come, first-serve basis. If the session with the mentor you wanted to meet is “sold out”, kindly consider another meeting with another mentor, or signing up for the Saturday Luncheon Table Topics or Gala Dinner to meet with them. To sign up for a mentoring session, please select the mentor with whom you would like to meet from the list above.

Please note: Chose your mentoring session carefully. (For more information on each mentor’s program, please refer to the Conference schedule.) Except in a few cases, each mentor has agreed to meet with only 6 artists for 20 minutes each. In the rare event that a mentor has to cancel their participation in the Conference, TransCultural Exchange reserves the right to replace the mentor with another Conference panelist or guest. In this and in all other instances, mentoring sessions are non-refundable.

In addition: There will be no laptops or computers available for the mentoring sessions. Therefore, to make the most of your mentoring session, either bring prints, brochures, catalogs and/or your own laptop to show your work to your mentor.
