ARTogether is pleased to host a 1-day program for 1st/2nd generation emerging refugee and immigrant poets and literary artists in the Bay Area.
This program centers gathering, collective power building, and peer connection while providing mentorship and guidance led by local poets, literary artists, and cultural workers established in the field.
Participants will reflect on their own journeys as literary artists thus far, identifying their goals and needs, and grounding their values and wishes. Please see below for a list of this year’s facilitators and program offerings.
Applicants must be a Bay Area based poet or literary artist who is a refugee, immigrant, or child of refugees/immigrants to apply. We strongly encourage and welcome applications from BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ 1st/2nd generation writers. More information at: artogether.org/mentorship-program.
