  the information that she covered in her previous workshop).

  effective edit and discuss best practices in editing.

Do you have a photography project or series you’re passionate about? Curious what your peers and others think of it?

Join APA | SD and our photo community on Wednesday, May 15th at 6:00 PM PST for an evening dedicated to sharing creative projects. This is an opportunity for you to share your work and/or to comment on the work of others. Four artists will be selected to share their projects in an in-person critique setting. Our “Peer to Peer” events are open to everyone, but you must be a current APA member to present your project.

As independent artists, we know it’s not easy to create in a silo. Sharing your work is an invaluable way to help find your voice and leverage the communal nature of creativity. Letting others in on your process can be inspiring and helps lead to self-discovery that can push a project even further.

If you don’t have a project to share, that’s ok. Come out to support the artists and photo community. Constructive feedback and insight are always welcome.

Send us a link to your project for consideration. Submissions should be ready to share and present to an audience. If you are selected to present, you will be given 15-20 minutes including time for comments and questions.

WHEN: Wednesday, May 15th, 2024 | 6 PM

WHERE: Studio on Banks | 5343 Banks St, San Diego, CA 92110

COST: Free

RSVP here to reserve your spot today!

Email director@apasd.org to reserve a spot and/or submit your project; the deadline to submit is May 9th, 2024.
