Is there anything in Amy’s original email that suggests she has an upper age limit?

Hello, this is something I would be interested in applying for but it would be nice if you also addressed age. I raised my children (with disabilities) and am now early in my career. Sadly most programs offering support for early career people also put in a cut-off age. At 47 I am now finding it extremely difficult to get started or to apply to early career programs.

Regards, Aylwen

Hi All,

 

We're hoping to create a artist/creative in residence opportunity (artistic medium tbc) and are interested in the idea of writing the brief as an opportunity for someone early in their career to work with a mentor.

 

Has anyone done anything similar to this? Would you be able to share case studies, artist's brief, mentor's brief etc?

 

Thanks, 

Amy
