Peer to Peer Mentorship

The application intake for the ACCA Peer-to-Peer Mentorship Program is now closed. Thank you to all who applied.

The ACCA Peer-to-Peer Mentorship initiative will provide valuable assistance to inspire, rebuild and renew professional capacity after the challenges of the pandemic, namely the departure of overstretched arts workers and the disincentives to move into or progress in the field. This program enables ACCA to broaden its offerings, expand its reach and involve an increased diversity of participation to assist both experienced and aspiring leaders to access mentorship in areas critical to meeting today’s challenges.

The program has paired 24 experienced mentors with 24 mentees (in both French and English) working in the live performing arts sector, to allow for focused training and knowledge transfer, helping each other to “rebuild better”.

This project is part of the ACCA Professional Development, Renewing Your Capacity Initiative funded by the Government of Canada Department of Canadian Heritage – Canada Performing Arts Workers Resilience Fund.
