WILD Now Accepting Applications for Mentorship Program

logo for WILD mentorship program

Women in Lighting + Design’s (WILD) peer-to-peer mentorship program was created to connect women at all stages in their lighting careers, encourage leadership and support within the community, and create a safe space for WILD members to share their experiences and learn from one another. The program will be small, peer-to-peer style groups, where all participants take on both mentor and mentee roles to foster growth and expand networks.

“My favorite part … was getting the opportunity to learn from the differing perspectives,” shares Addie Smith, a mentor from the pilot program. “My hope is this program helps retain women in lighting by offering support, understanding, and a sense of community.”

Interested members can apply here  or email wildmentorshipprogram@gmail.com with any questions.
