[Open Call] Young Photographers’ Mentorship Programme 2025

Apply by Tue 30 Sep 2025 (2359H) here

The Young Photographers’ Mentorship Programme (YPMP) aims to develop the artistic voice and ambitions of young image-makers looking to deepen their connection with image-making and consider a career in the visual arts or photography. This three-week mentorship programme encourages exploration and experimentation with image-based work, while developing an understanding of professional possibilities in the arts.

Through working on a personal project, participants will learn how to build a photographic practice, navigate professional and ethical challenges, and deepen their understanding of the broader arts ecosystem. The programme will culminate in a 2-day open studio presentation at Objectifs, offering the chance to share their work with peers, industry professionals, and the public.

Participants will be guided by some of Singapore’s leading visual storytellers, gaining valuable insights through mentorship, group critique sessions, and hands-on learning. Whether you’re just starting out or already on your creative path, this programme offers a space to develop your vision and understanding of the photographic arts.

The programme is free to apply and attend. A maximum of 12 participants will be selected for this programme. Participants must attend all workshop sessions in person.

Physical sessions:
1) 28 Nov, Fri, 6.30pm – 8.30pm
2) 2 Dec, Tue, 6.30pm – 10.30pm
3) 4 Dec, Thu, 7pm – 10pm
