How does it work?
Join with an idea or project you want to work on every day for 22 days. Participants are strategically paired and share a daily correspondence of feedback. We meet as a group once a week for an online video call discussion. Prompts and inspirational materials are provided to keep the creative sparks flying.
How are matches made?
Each workshop hosts a diverse pool of artists working in different mediums. Participants are paired based on the scope of their project and what kind of feedback is desired, plus matchmaker’s intuition.
Is this a collaboration workshop?
No, the goal is not to collaborate, it is to gain refreshing perspectives on your work from new angles. The one-on-one + group feedback experience offers personalized support, inspiration, and accountability towards your individual creative pursuit.
