NXT GEN launched with 150 emerging arts professionals learning from a panel who shared their experiences navigating the art world. Our key takeaways were:

• Building a strong network of peers gives you support you can count on throughout your career.

• Trying different roles and experiences helps you grow and approach situations with fresh perspectives.

• And don’t forget — every mistake is just another opportunity to learn!
