Mentorship Program announced for SCBWI's Summer Conference in LA

JUNE 11, 2009


Dear Member

If you are not an illustrator, you do not need to read any further. But if you are-wow, have we got something for you.

At this summer's SCBWI conference, we are launching the Illustrator's Committee Mentorship Program. Anyone who has entered a portfolio in the Portfolio Showcase is eligible. Four members of the SCBWI Board Illustrator Committee, Art Director Cecilia Yung, illustrator David Diaz, illustrator Pat Cummings, and illustrator Priscilla Burris will serve as a program jury and select four winners. The winners will receive individual half hour meetings with each member of the committee, to privately go over their work and portfolios. In addition, they will be invited to a working lunch on Monday, August 10, to meet with the committee and other winners and create career development strategies.

The ultimate goal of the Mentorship Program is to develop and nurture publishable illustrators.

So, if you haven't already entered your portfolio in the Saturday Showcase, do so now to qualify for this one-of-a-kind, life-altering opportunity.

Cordially,

Sara Rutenberg
SCBWI Conference
