Join Our Team of Art Mentors
Empowering Creativity. Building Careers. Changing Lives.
Leah Justyce Art Gallery is expanding — and we’re looking for passionate and supportive artists from across Australia to join us as Art Mentors for NDIS participants.
This is a unique opportunity to turn your creative skills into a rewarding career pathway, while helping emerging artists with disabilities thrive in their own communities.
We are building a national network of Mentors to deliver one-on-one and small-group online art programs designed to support independence, confidence, and creative skill development.

🌟 What You’ll Do
As a Mentor, you will:

✅ Support their personal and creative goals
✅ Promote independence, communication, and confidence
✅ Create a nurturing, inclusive, and safe learning environment

✅ Work flexible hours that fit your lifestyle
You do not need therapy qualifications — this is not art therapy. It’s about strengthening practical art skills, creative expression, and connection.

You get to be part of a movement making the art world more inclusive — one person at a time. ❤️
