The Monthly Exchange is our new format for professional development focused programming available to Essential Members. The hybrid event was designed by combining the best parts of our previous rotating programs into one! Part social mixer and part discussion/exchange, each month's session is led by an influential guest who holds a professional position in the art world, and will provide critical feedback and resources on a career-focused topic.

Essential Members can RSVP on the forum to set a reminder.
