Join us for Critique Across Kansas and Missouri, an offering of free, one-time critique groups organized and facilitated by SCBWI members. We have in-person groups across both Kansas and Missouri, as well as virtual options. It’s a great opportunity to connect with writers and illustrators in our region and get your work in front of fresh eyes or have it critiqued for the first time. The email call for those interested in hosting a group so keep an eye on those inboxes. Questions or comments? Email Mike at critiqueacrossksmo@gmail.com.
SCBWI is teaming up with the ArtsKC gallery in the Crossroads district of Kansas City to provide a great opportunity for a life drawing event! 6-8 pm CT ! For our SCBWI members it’s only $5! For non-members the fee is only $10 so feel free to invite non-members who also want to have a good time drawing. No drinks will be provided but please feel free to bring your own drinks and snacks as this is meant to be more of a social event for people who love or want to draw. If enough interest is shown we might be able to make this a monthly event!
