Annual dues are $150 and are collected prior to your first active meeting. Dues help cover the cost of our meeting space, website domain, snacks / drinks at meetings.
Your second meeting counts as your first “active” meeting.
As a member of the collective and to qualify to have work shown in end of year show, we ask that you attend monthly gatherings consistently (60% commitment) and share your work at least twice per year.
Lastly, if cost is a barrier, we offer a limited number of sliding scale slots.
Joining The Collective
We use feedback + critique as a tool for growth and aim to center curiosity, kindness, and clarity.
Speak from your perspective. (“I noticed…” vs. “You should…”)
Comment on the work, not the person.
Begin with strengths before suggestions.
Listen fully before responding.
Growth over ego + exploration over rules.
