The students attend schools which participated in Stages 1 and 2 of the ARTside-in! outreach program run by the Public Programs Department and sponsored by the Caledonia Foundation.

Students from each participating school then applied to be part of the Mentorship.

Four outstanding Visual Arts students from different high schools in New South Wales participated in the ARTside-in! Stage 3 Mentorship Program at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

Throughout the process I have really encapsulated the essence of the conceptual framework. This experience has extended my knowledge about it as I now understand it in its entirety.

I never really thought that there was so much to it, but I can now see how significant each area was. I now understand the relationships ignited between the artist, audience, artwork and world and how they are integrated within each other and how they operate together.

The three hour mentorship was an amazing experience, allowing me to have a one on one session with someone from a field I am very interested on entering when I get older.

In the mentorship I got to experience a day in the life of someone involved with primary school children, however of a different profession. I also gained a lot of information on a career path that I had never knew was possible before the experience.

The highlights of the Artside-In! program was going to the different studios. It was amazing to see how every artist works differently. I enjoyed talking about an artwork we liked and it helped me recognize the different meanings of artworks.

Each day we looked at a different part of the framework, and I think it helped me to see how it all linked together.
