October Crit Night with Necessary Arts & Otherwise Studios, facilitated by Paige Bromby - AT ART GALLERY OF GUELPH

4th Monday of Every Month | October 27, 6:30 - 8:30 P.M. | PWYC

October Crit Night location: Art Gallery of Guelph

We're kicking off the fall crit night season back at the Art Gallery of Guelph and are inviting local painters, sculptors, printmakers, textile artists, and other local artists to engage in a critical dialogue about each other's work! Artists are encouraged to bring an in-progress or complete artwork to share with the group. 

If you don't have an artwork that you'd like to bring in for feedback, you're welcome to join just to chat about other people's artwork and connect with local artists. Please indicate on your registration whether you'll be bringing art or just coming to discuss (select above).

Facilitated by local artist Paige Bromby, these monthly group critiques provide valuable feedback on your artwork, a friendly safe environment to share ideas and an opportunity to connect with local artists in your community!

Never participated in a critique before? No problem! We will be there every step of the way to ensure the process is fun, kind and inspiring.

This event is free to attend. Space is limited, RSVP today! Not ready for a critique this month? This is a monthly series, taking place on the 4th Monday of every month, alternating between local venues including Necessary Arts and Otherwise Studios.
