Commencing in January 2015 and running for six months, the successful applicants will take part in an exhibition at PAPER in June to mark the end of the mentoring programme.
Throughout the six month programme the artists will take part in sessions where they will present their work to the other successful candidates and two representatives of the PAPER team,who will be there to provide advice and support. Through the course of the mentoring scheme the artist will form a cohesive group and support one another in their preparations for the summer exhibition at PAPER. There is a small budget available to cover travel expenses for artists/studio visits outside of the Manchester area for each of the 12 sessions. There is also a £100 production budget for each artist for the exhibition and as a Tracing PAPER mentee you will also have a presence on their website.
