SF Camerawork Members' Critiques
Critiques are opportunities for SF Camerawork members to receive feedback on their work from leading artists and educators throughout the country. SF Camerawork has continued with a hybrid model for the Members' Critiques, alternating every other month between in-person and online sessions to inspire and engage with our communities in the Bay Area and globally.
Critique Format: The critiques are two hours long, usually on Tuesday evenings from from 6 - 8 pm PST. Five photographers have 20 minutes at each critique to present their work and receive feedback from the critique leader and the group. In addition to the five photographers presenting work, there are also typically 15 - 20 other members who tune in to observe, comment, and ask questions. Critiques are intended to be as collaborative as possible, and we encourage all participants to engage in the conversation!
If you are interested in learning more or presenting work at an upcoming Members' Critique, please email us at info@sfcamerawork.org for further details.
