Pratt>Forward Artist Development and Mentorship Program

Launched by artist Mickalene Thomas and the Pratt Institute in 2021, Pratt>FORWARD connects creative thought leaders with emerging artists to guide them in navigating the art world and building opportunities and communities. This year’s program for 10 participating artists, to be held in October, will be hosted at newlab, an innovation incubator in the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

We look forward to mentoring the participating artists on the business of art. Congratulations to participating artists Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter, Taisha Carrington, Jennifer Chia-Ling Ho, Mario Joyce, Kirsten Leach, Kristyn McKinney, Sajjad Musa, Mieyoshi Ragernoir, Vessna Scheff, and Yamico.
