Thinking about registering for the 2025 Ohio North conference? Join the Ohio North Regional Team for a one-hour Zoom question and answer session about the conference. This is a great opportunity ask your questions about what to expect at the conference and how to prepare. We can tackle everything from choosing the best breakout sessions for your journey to how to prepare your manuscript or portfolio for critique and everything in between! No question is a bad question! Or just come to listen to what other great questions your peers bring to the session- you never know what you might learn that can help you make the best of your conference experience! This session is FREE and OPEN to everyone. A recording of this Q&A will be available for 30 days after the event.

Get ready for our monthly Illustration Critique Group! This is a great opportunity to receive valuable feedback and encouragement on your artwork and meet other artists like you. We are a supportive group and many people have grown in their craft from attending these monthly. We will divide our time between each participant, so everyone has the chance to share their work. We use zoom and you will share your screen when it is your turn. If you are not comfortable sharing or don't have anything to share currently, you are welcome to come and observe, provide feedback to others and learn! Any questions, please reach out to our Illustration Coordinator, Kristi Tartara at [email protected]. If you sign up but cannot make it last minute, please email Kristi to let her know. We hope to see you at our next critique!

**What to Expect:** Interested in joining a meeting? Great! First, please register for your chosen month on our Open Ohio North Events page. The day before (or on the day of) the manuscript critique meeting, we will email you a Zoom link for the session. We typically limit attendance to 15 participants due to time constraints, but the average number of attendees is between 5 and 10. At the beginning of the meeting, we will determine how many members would like to share their manuscripts. This helps us allocate time appropriately for each person. If you plan to share a story, please have your document open on your computer and be ready to “share your screen” through Zoom. Once you select your document, everyone on Zoom will be able to see your screen and read along with you. Alternatively, if you prefer, someone else can read your manuscript for you. If you've had difficulties sharing your screen in the past, you can always email your story to one of our regional team members, and they will share your manuscript on the screen. After you’ve read your story, the members will have the opportunity to provide positive and constructive feedback. We’ll then move on to the next participant. **Please Note:** You do NOT have to share anything to attend a meeting, nor do you need to offer feedback if you don't have any. Feel free to join just to observe! The only guidelines are to be kind to everyone, remain open to suggestions, and most importantly, have fun!
