THE 2021 CLICK! VIRTUAL PORTFOLIO REVIEWS
October 14 and 15, 2021
We wish that we could say that the 2021 Portfolio reviews would be in person, but we think the safest approach is to present the 2021 Click! Portfolio Reviews in a virtual format. Stay tuned for the announcement of dates and 2021 Reviewers. We have had to dramatically change the format to address the current pandemic. We are going to outline some of the format changes we used for 2020 and will also be in place for 2021.
We will keep our format of 30 minute sessions with 5 minute breaks between sessions. The sessions will take place in prescheduled zoom sessions. In order to do our best to recreate the social connection and networking aspect of the Click! Reviews, we are going to have an ongoing open virtual photo lounge for artists to congregate during the review days. We will have a meeting manager that can facilitate breakout sessions and we will encourage the sharing of work among your peers.
Our roster of 2021 Reviewers: stay tuned as we add more to the list.

Tips and Tricks:
- We have reduced the fee to $350 to be a part of the virtual reviews.
- Each artist is still guaranteed 10 reviews!
- Once registered we will ask you to rank your reviewers in order of preference.
- Artists are required to upload portfolio/s to their own dropbox account and share those with us with admin access so that we can then share them with our reviewers. You have options in how you upload your folios. You can upload more than one folio, in individual folders. You can upload bodies of work (we recommend 20 images as an ideal amount) in images sizes of 800px on the longest side, or you can upload pdfs of folios if sequencing is important to your presentation. We recommend including an artists statement with each portfolio.
- Reviewers will have the option of viewing your work before your session and to be in control of the flow of the session, by accessing your dropbox folders and sharing their screens with you.
Big Thanks to the 2020 Reviewers
