Women Career Mentors

We have openings for seasoned professional women to volunteer as career mentors with EWI artist members. The commitment is usually 2-4 hours a week working one-on-one with the artist member.

Every artist member’s needs are different, so we may not have a career mentor opportunity for you immediately, as we try to match up each volunteer with a member most in need of their skills, assets, and background.

If you want to volunteer as a career mentor, please email Marga.
