Evergreen, Saturday, December 8 LAST CLASS

This day will be pretty fast-paced, as we'll be working to give everyone ample feedback on their portfolios. Here's what I propose for a format:

9:00-12:45
Begin by presenting* your portfolio work in either the studio or the critique room (I'll have both spaces open, most likely by 8:30, weather permitting). Works can be installed in whatever manner you see necessary-- on easels, pinned to the wall, on tabletop, pedestals, arranged on the floor, or any combination therein.

10:30 (or whenever it's really needed)
Break time. I'll be bringing some coffee and banana bread, and I encourage you all to bring anything you would like to share as well.

12:45
Turn-in final copies of your self-evaluation and faculty evaluation. Helpful information and templates for your evaluations are available here. If you are new to the evaluation process, or would like feedback, The Writing Center offers numerous tools for assisting you in the process. In addition to this, please feel free to email me dombrosm@evergreen.edu with any questions.

*in presenting your portfolio, please note that this process is designed to be tailored to you, and my hope is that it would be useful in discussing your work as it exists and considering ways to sustain your artistic practice. With this in mind, are there specific questions you have for the group regarding your work?

Does your portfolio of works succeed in the ways you hoped it would?
Are there certain concepts or compositions where you would like feedback?
Which works presented (or rather, continue to present) questions to you?

Thanks for all of your work this quarter, and I'm looking forward to class next week!
