CLICK HERE to apply for a Critique Session.
A critique session with League jurors is helpful during any stage of your creative process – as a beginner looking for ways to grow and improve your craft, or for a seasoned craftsmen looking for ways to expand and develop new approaches to their work.
During a session, jurors will review and discuss 8-12 examples of your work. You’ll have an opportunity to present questions to the jurors to gain insight and feedback on your process, and to reflect on practical as well and meaningful aspects of your creative process.
A critique session is also a wonderful stepping stone toward becoming a member of the League. If you are considering having your work juried as a potential League member but are not sure if your work has reached that level of professional achievement, a critique session provides important feedback to help you prepare for the jurying process.

All attempts are made to accommodate requests for critique sessions. Ultimately critique/jury sessions are determined by applicant and juror availability and a minimum of 3 applicants and 2 jurors are required to host sessions in that particular media. In the event that the minimum number of applicants/jurors are not available, critiques/juries for that media may be postponed until the next season of sessions.
