Testimonials

My experience with the Incubator Program was exceptional, and I highly recommend it to any artist at any career level. What separated this program from others was the deep dive into the art market and art world through the organization’s own experiences. All the materials given throughout the program were immensely insightful and expanded on a wealth of information to help direct my practice. The weekly meetings created a supportive community that I didn’t have previously and that I will continue to engage with throughout my entire career. The 1:1 sessions were extremely helpful in receiving additional feedback on next steps in my art practice. Lastly, having the opportunity to speak with professionals in the art market community and being able to receive additional information was invaluable. The overall experience gave me the support I needed to help gain a better understanding of my creative practice and the professional side of the art world through a highly nurturing program.

I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is ready to change their mindset when it comes to building community in the art world. There are no shortcuts, rather this program gives participants the necessary tools to build a sustainable practice. Haylee is an incredibly warm person who generously shares her knowledge, connections and expertise. I had my first solo show shortly after this program at an emerging artist gallery in Soho!

The Incubator is great! It instantaneously brought me into a community of people who really care about art, and has already had a tremendous impact on my artistic endeavors. Huge thanks to Haylee and Blayne for putting it together!
