Jennifer Wester, a working artist with a degree from Yale and SMU respectively, has seen a variety of critical discussions, facilitated and ad-hoc. The differences she observed in participant satisfaction and subsequent artist appreciation of critical discussions have led her to investigate the nuances, needs, and impacts of different critical approaches, formats, and expectations of critique. She would like to share her resulting insights and two of the most popular crit culture structures, from her observations, as a contribution to Dallas artists and the broader North Texas Arts community.

As the artist behind the Art Experience Confessional (@artconfessional ), she has been committed to elevating discussions in and around art with the general public. With Dallas rapidly growing, and the arts community strengthening by the day through grassroots organizations such as Aurora, Cedars Open Studios, and the Cedars Union, she believes that thoughtful community establishment of healthy crit cultures can serve to strengthen connections among DFW artists. It is to this end that I propose this workshop.
