More information:

What is a Crit Night?  A "crit" is short for "critique," is a constructive discussion where artists come together to share their artwork and receive feedback from their peers. It's a valuable opportunity to gain fresh perspectives, insights, and suggestions that can help improve and refine your artistic work. Crits are typically supportive, focused on growth, and provide a platform for artists to engage in thoughtful discussions about their creations.


Akin Code of Conduct: All participants are expected to adhere to the Akin Code of Conduct. Please familiarize yourself with it by clicking here.


Engaging Conversations: Whether you're showcasing new work or not, you're welcome to participate in the discussions. Share your thoughts, provide feedback, and become an integral part of our artistic community.


Effective Feedback: Artists seeking feedback are encouraged to specify the type they're looking for. Those providing feedback are asked to frame their comments as suggestions rather than judgments. Let's support each other's growth and successes.
