Critique Group Sunday, Feb. 17th

I’m happy to say that our first “official” critique workshop went very well! Of course, that’s my opinion and have yet to hear from the other attendees if that’s a universal feeling or I’m just completely off in LaLa Land. Our next meeting is tentatively set for Sunday, February 17th. The details follow.

If you did not attend nor notified us of a desire to attend the first meeting and would like to come, please leave a comment (remember, your email address is required but never published, sold, traded, put up for a dart board target or otherwise; however without an accurate active address, we won’t be able to respond so please make sure you input it correctly!) and one of us will get back to you with the specifics.

As this is an active critique workshop, everyone intending on attending should have contacted us no later than the Thursday preceding the event (therefore, Thursday, February 14 a.k.a. V-Day) so the pieces we’ll be reviewing can be sent to you in enough time for you to read and participate in the workshop.

Event: Regular Critique Workshop
Date: Sunday, February 17, 2008
Place: Merriam Library, 4th Floor (specifics will be emailed upon confirmation)
Time: 1:00 PM – 3:00 PM

Hope to see you there!
