Mentor Mondays is back this November and we’re delighted to be joined by guest mentor, curator and researcher Rose Lejeune.

Part of ‘a space’ arts expanded Artist Voices Programme, Mentor Mondays invites visual arts professionals from across the UK to hold zoom 1-to-1 sessions with artists & artworkers from the SO postcode area. For the upcoming November session, guest mentor Rose will be offering support, advice and guidance for artists and artworkers living and working in the SO postcode area. This opportunity would be particularly suited to those working in fields such as curation and research, or those who are interested in social and performative practices.

Mentor Mondays will take place on on Monday 21st November. There are three 45 minute sessions available between 9am – 12pm and the sessions will take place online via Zoom.
