Torpedo Factory Art Center presents 2019 Friends of the Torpedo Factory Mentorship Program Exhibition. Every year, the mentorship program offers this opportunity to high school students from TC William High School and West Potomac High School to be paired with a Torpedo Factory artist as their mentor. During the course of the program, the artist mentors oversee and guide their mentees with their art projects, help develop new art skills, and provide artistic career advice. This program offers a way for young artists to learn about the art world in a professional setting. At the end of their program, the students showcase their completed work in Site 2 Community Gallery. This year, the Friends Mentors will be showcasing their work along with their students’.
