Opening Minds Through Mentorship

For the past eight years, The Adroit Journal has hosted either free or low-cost mentorship programs for poets, fiction writers, and creative nonfiction writers interested in building sustained relationships with craft and creative peers.

Our mentorship alums have gone on to publish books, land in such anthologies as Best American Poetry, Best New Poets, and Best of the Net, and—most importantly—to write work that interrogates and inspires.
