Enjoy refreshments and experience a fast-paced and in-depth artwork critique of 10 juried artworks. Jurors Paul Ecdao, Co-owner/Curator of Thumbprint Gallery; LA-based Art Manager and Dealer Billy Gross; and Rokhsane Hovaida of California Center for the Arts, Escondido selected the works from submissions and will also run the in-person session.

Art lovers and artists curious about the process of a professional critique are encouraged to attend the session for free as observers. The critique will be followed by a moderated audience Q&A session. Audience members will learn just as much from the feedback given by the professional jurors as those who were selected for the critique. Note: Registering for this event is not the same as submitting your artwork for consideration to be critiqued. Submissions to be one of the 10 featured artists are closed. Selections to be announced November 13.
