Sound familiar?
This is what anÂ
Intro Crit is.
An Intro Crit is a focused 1-on-1 session with a professional artist mentor from the NewCrits network. Your mentor reviews your submitted work before you meet, so when the session begins, you move straight into the work itself. No small talk, just a direct, meaningful read: where you are, what's working, where you're stuck, and what to do next.
The session fee goes directly to the artist you choose.
What you leave with.

04
A recommendation for next steps or pathways into deeper mentorship, if you want one.

The session fee goes directly to the artist you choose.
What artists are saying
"The experience felt world class, not because of prestige, but because of the clarity, rigor, and tenderness with which it was held."
"Our conversations provided so much insight on new ways to think about using the camera as a tool. Our conversations have also been a north star towards how I want to continue to practice and approach ideas about camera and visibility."
What to expect.
