APPLICATIONS NOW CLOSED.
DMC Futures returns—empowering Dumfries & Galloway’s young creatives to make their mark in music and the arts.
Our Futures programme facilitates 8, fully funded, 12-hour, creative development opportunities. We have created our mentorships to offer emerging creatives the opportunity to work with an established industry professional with an aim of gaining support in taking the next step forward in their career progression.
Each mentee will work with an established practitioner to draw on their experience as an individual working in the creative or music industry. The mentor is there to help inspire and inform the future of the mentee by sharing experiences and offering advice and guidance.
Examples of previous DMC Futures mentorships are; Song Writing with BEMZ, Visual Communication with Raissa Pardini, Music Production with ONR, Music Journalism with Gold Flake Paint and Running a Record Label with Phlex Records.
