Crit Session w/ Katina Davidson

Crit Sessions are a unique opportunity to develop your emerging, early or mid-career visual arts or curatorial practice with constructive feedback and discussions on your works or works-in-progress from some of Australia’s leading artists, curators and industry professionals. This professional development series provides artists with valuable insights which are often hard to find outside of educational institutions.⁠

Across 2025, Outer Space are facilitating five Crit Sessions both online and in-person with industry leaders from across Australia. For the third Crit Session of 2025, we will be joined by esteemed curator and writer, Katina Davidson.

These events are free with a very limited capacity of six participants per session. We intend for the sessions to be accessible, inclusive and supportive environments for creative and professional growth. ⁠

Spots are limited and available until tickets are exhausted. If our upcoming guest facilitator feels aligned with your practice, feel free to claim a seat. A gentle reminder to consider whether this session is the right fit for you, others may really benefit too.

If tickets have been exhausted, we encourage you to still join the waitlist via the form provided. If something comes up and you cannot attend, please release your ticket so someone else has the chance to participate.
