Get feedback on your work and meet local creatives at this Monthly Artists Share! group, facilitated by Midori Creativity.

Artists Share! is a place to share your creative work, get support and feedback, and be part of a wonderful discussion. Hosted by Midori Creativity, we’re all about cross-pollination welcoming painters, jewelry makers, fiber artists, photographers, musicians, scultptors and more. Our exhibit, Creative Catalysts, celebrates the interplay and creative exploration that happens when artists of different genres work together.
Anyone is welcome and we take turns sharing. Sometimes we are looking at a body of work and other times we are talking about creative identity. The group meets every month, aiming to help each other progress and grow in our work by sharing and exploring together. It’s a chance to learn from people whose work may be different from your own but who have insights you could never imagine. We laugh, share ideas, and have fun!
Participants can also attend via Zoom. Learn more about the program at midoricreativity.com/artistsshare
This program is supported in part by a grant from the New Bedford Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.

This program is intended for photographers ages 13 and up.
