Queer|Art|Mentorship<\/a> supports a year-long exchange between early-career and advanced-career LGBTQ+ artists living in New York City \u2014 working together in pairs and as a class across five fields of creative practice (Film, Literature, Performance, Visual Art, and Curatorial Practice). Applications are open now!<\/p>\n Fellows apply with a specific project they would like to work on during the program and meet with their Mentors monthly to discuss their progress. Fellows also meet each month as a group. At the culmination of the program, each Fellow participates in a special exhibition \u2014 known as the “QAM Annual” \u2014 that showcases their practice and the progress of their project. The program begins in October and ends in October of the following year.<\/p>\n Thomas Lax (Curatorial Practice) We encourage all interested applicants to familiarize themselves with the work of our Mentors. Bios for each Mentor are available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Applications open: May 12, 2019 Each Mentor chooses the Fellow they will be working with during the program. Applicants selected to participate in the program receive year-long support (October 2019-September 2020) with once-a-month meetings with their Mentor. Fellows also meet monthly as a group, further engaging with a community of artistic peers across disciplines.<\/p>\nThe Mentors<\/h2>\n
