This is the form to apply for the inaugural Flazéda LGBTQIA+ Alternate Performing Arts Mentorship Program.

This mentorship program gives you FREE 6-months of mentorship and includes:
• 10 free hours of studio time (to rehearse performances) – valued at $450
• 10 free class credits to attend professional development classes/workshops at Flazeda – valued at $250
• 3 hours of one-on-one mentorship (with your choice of our in-house mentors) – valued at $450
• 2 opportunities for performance (inclusion in show line ups with feedback provided from mentor)
There is no financial cost to be involved as a mentee

All successful applicants will also be given access to a collection of digital resources provided by our mentors to support artist professional growth and will also have access to a "Social Media for Artists" training workshop.
The residency will take place over the course of July 2021 and January 2022.
Participating artists will work on their own timeline/s and have the flexibility to design their opportunity around mentor and studio availability and other commitments.

This residency program is designed to allow LGBTQIA+ people – particularly people who identify as non-binary or transgender – to have equal access to opportunities to develop new work in a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment.
Intersectionality is carefully considered, and priority will be given to people identify as IBPOC (Indigenous, Bla(c)k and People of Colour - i.e., Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and/or people from Cultural and Linguistically diverse backgrounds), older people, people with disability, carers, and concession card holders.

For more information about this Program, please go to www.flazedahub.com
Expression of interest closes on Monday 24 June 2021 at 5pm AEST.

Please note that this opportunity is only open to LGBTQIA+ Canberra-based artists.
Artists can apply to this program as a soloist, or a group up to 4 people max.
