Creative Collaboration Critique Group

Beginning Feb. 13 we’ll be starting a critique group for artists in the area. We’ll be meeting together in the Maple Valley Creative Arts building on the second Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m. This critique group is your chance to ask for feedback from fellow artists in a supportive environment and to give encouraging feedback to those same artists. Please feel free to invite other artist you think would be interested. Please bring in any work that you feel represents where you are as an artist.
