The greatest assistance I had starting in the arts was to know a few people in the Inuit art world of whom I could ask questions. An Artist Portal that connects artists who have questions with those that can provide answers will prove to be an invaluable resource.

Being able to make new connections with other artists is awesome. Having access to opportunities for Inuit artists is also amazing and I feel grateful for that.
