" Ravista Mehra’s guidance played a key role in helping my daughter Kayraa Garg brainstorm creative ideas and thoughtful strategies. Every art piece created under her mentorship reflected a remarkable blend of creativity and clarity. Ravista not only nurtured Kayraa’s artistic abilities but also helped in beautifully showcasing her work.
We are truly thankful for her dedication, support, and inspiring mentorship."
Ravista Mehra’s mentorship played a meaningful role in my creative growth and helped me achieve my goal of getting into my first-choice university, RISD. Her guidance pushed me to think more deeply and explore ideas in new, imaginative ways. She was always there to help me brainstorm, refine my concepts, and bring clarity to my vision."
Thanks to her support, I was able to express myself more confidently through my work and present a strong, cohesive portfolio. I’m incredibly grateful for her encouragement, insight, and the way she constantly inspired me to push my creative boundaries.
The mentorship is structured to introduce students to college-level critical thinking and making,
while allowing them to explore their own voice. Each student receives guidance from a creative practitioner who has not only studied at top-tier institutions but is also currently active in the
industry and academia.
The core philosophy of the mentorship is to provide students with direct access to creative professionals working in fields that align with what the students hope to study—bridging the gap between aspiration and experience.
