ArtEd.ca, a new art and mentorship resource website by MAWA, is here!

Visit ArtEd.ca for a myriad of resources for artists, arts educators and administrators!

Want to know how to write an artist bio? Check the tips in the Professional Development section. Interested in learning two-needle beading? There is a “how to” video tutorial by beading master Jeninne Krauchi in the Making section. Wondering how to approach CVs and artist statements from a Canadian gallery and granting perspective? There are pdfs and videos to help you through it.

Or perhaps you work with an arts organization and are interested in starting a mentorship program. MAWA gets calls each year from around the world from people who want to draw upon MAWA’s decades of expertise. Now all of MAWA’s mentorship resources are located in one free, accessible place. These documents and videos will also be helpful to mentors and mentees: “how to mentor” and “how to be mentored” advice is provided.

The website was built with support from the Manitoba Association for Art Education (MAAE) and the Manitoba Arts Council. And it will continue to
evolve! MAWA will create more art resources, feminist and Manitoba made, in the years to come.
