In the midst of the pandemic, the Guild is going online to virtual programs!
We are using Zoom to have meetings and lectures. Let us know who your favorite artists are. We may be able to bring them to town through Zoom!
Once you register on the form at the end of this page you will receive an email with an invitation to join the meeting. You can register for several programs at once.
Registration closes an hour before the event!
Hope to see you there!
Show and Share and Critique meetings
Thursday, May 12, at 12 pm: Critique
Please register on the Registration Form. Registration closes an hour before the event!
For FGP members only.
Show & Shares as well as Critiques will become hybrid. They will be both in Person at Contemporary Craft in Lawrenceville, 5645 Butler Street 15201 and also on Zoom. We will reevaluate monthly to see if we continue with this modality. Please pre-register so we can update you on any changes to the format. You do not have to submit work, you can attend to meet other guild members and see what people are working on.
You have a choice to be there:
–IN PERSON if you are vaccinated, “boosted” and masked, or 10 days after you have recovered from Covid
–On Zoom.
Those who are “showing” on Zoom must send images ahead of time to Jamie Boyle jamieannboyle@gmail.com. You may take pictures of your work on your cell phone and forward to Jamie, don’t forget to identify yourself in the email.
What is the difference between a Show & Share and a Critique? You can attend both! You can attend even if you have no work to share.
Show & Share: for members who don’t want suggestions, they just want to show off, share what they are working on, and meet other Guild members.
Critique: for members who want constructive suggestions about their work to solve technical, aesthetic or presentation problems.
This is a fun way to stay connected and get inspired!!
Please join us!
