Join us for the final ArtTalk of 2025!
MMFA will take ArtTalk on the road once again for our December gathering at The Sanctuary. Visual artists of all disciplines are invited to bring one piece of artwork in any stage of development (early conception, work in progress, or finished). Art enthusiasts and community members at large are invited to share their interpretations, feelings, and thoughts about the artworks presented.
Refreshments for the December ArtTalk will be provided by Lorraine’s Bake Shop. For more information, email Tiiwon Siaway at tsiaway@mmfa.org.
How it Works:
ArtTalk is an anonymous critique, which means the identity of each artist will be concealed unless they decide to reveal themselves.
- Sign in and select a number.
- Stick your number on the back of your artwork with tape. (Optional: Place a red dot on your number for a more in-depth critique.)
- Place your artwork in the designated area, making sure your art is facing away from view.
- Take a seat and enjoy the critique!
