Mentors
Send your name and areas of expertise to info@arizonaartistsguiild.net, in order to be paired with one mentee for a period of no more than one year. Mentees who apply to participate will be matched with an appropriate mentor. Mentees will be permitted to contact the mentor by either email or phone, but will be allowed no more than one per week, unless both agree to allow more contact for a defined period of time. The relationship may be ended by either party at any time, and is solely for the purpose of exchanging information related to being an artist.
Mentees
Send your name and area you desire help with to info@arizonaartistsguild.net. You will then be put in contact with a mentor. Once in contact with a mentor you will be able to either phone or email them no more than once a week for a period of up to one year. At the end of the year, you will have to request to be paired with a new mentor. The relationship between mentor and mentee is solely for the exchange of information related to being an artist and this relationship maybe ended by either party at any time.
