My time with Starling Arts was invaluable. I learned so much about working and running a business within the arts industry in just ten weeks! I have already used the skills I learned to become a better facilitator and I am currently using the experiences I had during my time on placement with Starling to secure future jobs and feel confident in my abilities. Anna and Emily have since become great mentors to me and I know I will hold Starling Arts close to my heart forever.
