Let’s learn from each other to improve our business situations as artists
An interactive mentoring session for artists on January 10 became an active group discussion that helped its 14 participants learn from each other.
Hosted by ACGR's Glen Hay, who came up with THE MENTORING IDEA, and ACGR board member Stacey Gilmartin, who organized the roundtable, the session had each person explain their art and identify what they wished to learn (at this meeting).
The experience and goals of the group ranged from “How to work Etsy” to more aggressive dreams of licensing, branding, and massive retail exposure.
A day after the meeting, Stacey shared a booklet with participants that lists and expands on topics they discussed at the meeting and provides resources.
▼ That booklet is now available.
Glen will be mentoring two artists from the session who requested more guidance.
“Overall, Think Tank provided insight and inspiration,” said Stacey. "Hopefully, ACGR will offer another session this year." Thank you to ACGR’s John Blackman, who reserved the conference room at the GR Library, and Patti McHugh, who snapped a photo of the gathering.
