Critique Groups and Mentoring Program
There are four critique groups – one for each time zone in the US. These groups are such a great learning opportunity. The members who have been involved and taking advantage of these feel that they are extremely worthwhile. Each group meets once a month through a Zoom call.
A Member does not need to join the group for the region they live in. Anyone can join any of the groups, or all of the groups!
If you are interested, contact Vicki Pedersen (vicki.pedersen@gmail.com) and she'll get you connected to the group in your region. Or you can join any group you’d like. We have them set up in regions for just for convenience.
Eastern Region: 1st Monday at 7:00 p.m. ET
Central Region: 2nd Monday at 6:00 p.m. CT
Mountain Region: 3rd Monday at 4:00 p.m. MT
Western Region group: Last Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. PT
