This Bonus Q and A session will feature Jonas Becker, a professor at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with over 15 years of experience in academia and mentoring artists to obtain meaningful academic jobs. Jonas will answer your questions and share practical advice for strengthening your academic academic applications.

For many artists, academic jobs create financial stability for an art practice, and provide an opportunity to have meaningful impact through mentoring future artists. Jonas has developed successful strategies for all stages of the application process, from preparing to apply, creating strong application documents and portfolio, to interviews and navigating offers and the tenure process.

He will be offering coaching and application document review through Netvvrk and is looking forward to sharing tried and true strategies that can bring your application material to the top of the stack during this Q and A.
