Artspire One-On-One Mini Consultations

Artspire One-On-One is a unique, mini consulting session for artists in all disciplines at any stage in their career that are held off-site from NYFA and co-hosted with arts organizations throughout the United States. These sessions give artists an opportunity to meet one-on-one for 10 minutes with a program officer from Artspire, a program of New York Foundation for the Arts, to discuss how to move forward in their career and meet their professional goals. Participants may bring a grant, fiscal sponsorship, or residency application, or project proposal for review and feedback; use the session to brainstorm and discover where to find additional resources and opportunities for a specific project; or discuss next steps for achieving their goals. One-on-one sessions are for individual artists, but collaborative teams are welcome. Artspire One-On-One mini-consulting sessions are $10 for 10 minutes.
