WHAT PEOPLE SAY...
"Our mentoring from Kapow came at a crucial time for us as we were starting to apply for Arts Council funding for the first time. Eithne and Beth's guidance and knowledge during the application process was absolutely vital in giving us the confidence and tools to successfully access funding.
​
During the creative process Kapow's mentorship was so valuable, giving us an objective 'outside eye' that helped prompt development and growth in the work. Eithne and Beth fed the process massively and we are so grateful for their input and ongoing support." H&T creative
BESPOKE MENTORING WITH KAPOW
Sometimes you need a bit more than a short chat.
Kapow offer mentoring to other artists in various settings. This could anything from a half day to a weeklong. We can also arrange a regular session to keep you progressing your projects.
​
1. Studio based/on site mentoring and feedback on artistic work, often facilitating conversation using the Liz Lerman method of feedback, 'Critical Response Process', to ensure it is non-biased and appropriate for the artist at the centre of the process.
​
2. In person or online help with running a dance company or independent dance business - including feedback on fundraising, business plans, strategy and more.
​
Sometimes you need a person who understands to work through things with you.
