Opportunity Knocks - International Fellowship presentations

On 26 February M&G NSW hosted a special presentation of the 2012 Fellowship & Mentorship recipients.

In 2012, eight people from museums and galleries across NSW participated in two-week professional development placements with cultural organisations relevant to their field of work.

Each speaker talked about the benefits of undertaking a mentorship or fellowship and how they plan to implement the things that they have learned into their own work practices.

Are you interested in a mentorship, fellowship or professional placement?

DALLAS MUSEUM OF ART FELLOWSHIP
BRETT ADLINGTON, DIRECTOR, LISMORE REGIONAL GALLERY

Brett undertook a fellowship at the Dallas Museum of Art’s Centre for Creative Connections. Meeting with key people in the Museum and other institutions across the Dallas-Fort Worth area provided Brett with countless ways to re-invigorate his own gallery spaces, programming and approach to designing a participatory space.
