Grohwie Design Fellowship
(closed now)
This is for you if
You're a digital designer, from illustrations to videos, posters, apps, brands, and you've been at it for 1–3 years.
You're good at what you do but you're not earning enough from it yet.
You've never had someone to ask for advice or help along the way.
You want to be around other designers who push you to be better.
You can be based anywhere in the world, from Scotland to Brazil to Nigeria etc.
You don't need to be amazing yet. You just need to be honest about where you are and ready to show up.
The first four weeks are live online sessions. The last four weeks, you'll work on a design project and show it off at the end.
At the end of 8 weeks, you'll have:
A price list you actually believe in: You'll have an idea of how to find what pricing works best, and how to say it without feeling bad about it.
Know how to prepare your profile and pitch for freelance gigs.
A list of places to find design jobs.
A 30-day plan for what to post online.
A project for your portfolio.
A group of designers who've got your back.
An accountability partner and a community that stays with you after the fellowship ends.
A certificate.
The first four weeks are live online sessions. For the last four weeks, you'll work on a design project and show it off at the end.
8 weeks online.
Live sessions once a week.
Cohort size of maximum 20 fellows. Small on purpose, so everyone gets seen. Selected fellows participate for free and at no extra cost to them.
You must attend all sessions and complete all tasks.
