“The mentor/mentee relationship lends itself to endless opportunities for self-investigation and creative renewal – from both sides. Because of CHIME, I feel we have been able to engage on a deep creative and personal level, diving into shared curiosities with an incredible feeling of trust and respect. ”

– Kara Davis, Mentee 2009

“Although I have little knowledge of her dance style, I was able to guide [my mentee] through the creative process more smoothly by using my own expertise, processes, and experiences in classical Cambodian dance. So far, as anticipated, our experiences have been positive and meaningful.”

– Charya Burt, Mentor 2010
