The Institute is a faraway place designed for artists of all mediums who want to improve the artistic, technical and creative side of their work.

It's an academy, a classroom, a home, a getaway, an information desk and so much more. It is our sanctuary and asylum for the wonderfully mad. Becoming a part of the community allows you to find a mentor, or become one.

What is a mentor?

"A positive role model, an adviser, an experienced friend. Somebody from outside a person's immediate circle taking a special interest can make an enormous difference."

"a one-to-one, non-judgemental relationship in which an individual voluntarily gives time to support and encourage another. This is typically developed at a time of transition in the mentee's life, and lasts for a significant and sustained period of time."

We welcome those of all levels.
