The exhibit highlights a very successful ongoing critique group program that was founded by SMI years ago and has grown to encompass numerous groups of artists working in a variety of art mediums. Artists generally meet monthly in person (or in drop-in zoom sessions since the onset of the Covid pandemic). Participating artists, who include novices as well as professionals, report great satisfaction with both the camaraderie and helpful feedback provided by group members. Visitors to the Critique Group Showcase will be richly rewarded with the innovative and skilled artwork of Studio Montclair members that reflects the strength of fellowship and exchange of ideas in a congenial environment.
