Workshops
The Critical Fish facilitates workshops and participatory opportunities. This is to help people feel more confident in critically engaging with art, but also to make conversations about art more inclusive and accessible to more people. Here we share some of the work we’ve done and workshop series that are ongoing. Be sure to check out the outcomes of our workshops.
