Mentor Arts
INSPIRE. BE INSPIRED. MAKE ART WITH A CHILD.
Inspire
Do you have a passion for the arts? Did you wish you had someone to foster and encourage your love of the arts and talent when you were a kid?
Mentoring is a time to help young people gain the skills and confidence to be responsible for their own future.
A Mentor is: caring, creative, a trusted guide, friend, positive
role model, good listener, reliable, committed, tolerant, patient,
a confidante.
Be Inspired
Learn how enriching and rewarding it can be to be a mentor. Working with a young person is a creative and fun process. Simply becoming a supportive, caring friend can be a great gift—and a great challenge.
Become a Mentor
Mentor Arts youth are 10–18 year olds who want to explore
their interest in the arts and need some extra guidance through the process.
Mentor Arts is a community-based program; however, we do offer access to our studios (photography, printmaking, and clay), classrooms, and supplies, as well as on-going support for the mentor and mentee.
About the Program
Mentor pairs meet one to two hours a week for one year. Using BCA’s Print + Clay Studio, darkroom and painting classroom, pairs explore different artistic mediums and various projects.
Help foster a love of art in someone who needs a friend!.
