AOE Arts Council initiates a group of young emerging Arts professionals

**

(Ottawa, Ontario) AOE Arts Council is excited to initiate a new Young Art Leaders Committee and is looking to attract a dynamic membership to this group during a Wine & Cheese Mixer event to be held at Club SAW on Tuesday, April 14, from 6-8 p.m.








This free event is open to post-secondary students, recent graduates and members of the public who want to come out to network with peers or potentially join the new Young Art Leaders Committee in Ottawa.








The purpose of the Young Art Leaders Committee is to connect individuals who are pursuing a professional career in the Arts with guest Arts professionals for exchanges of experiences, practical advice, and insight on transitioning into an Arts career. AOE Arts Council’s hopes that once the Committee is established it will seek to identify new initiatives and events relevant to young emerging Arts professionals.
