Starving Artist ATX Pop-Up events generate revenue to fund nonprofit programming and provide a platform for hands-on training for youth participants, aged 18-26. Youth run every element of the “business,” including food preparation, pricing and budgeting, business development and strategy, marketing, social media, etc. To do this, we need mentors like you to teach and guide them along the way.
​
In preparation for the launch of the TAY Fellowship Program in Spring 2020, Starving Artist ATX is searching for volunteer mentors for the program at launch and support our fundraising efforts leading up to it.
