The Monthly Exchange is our format for professional development focused programming available to Essential Members. Part social mixer and part discussion/exchange, each month's session is led by an influential guest who holds a professional position in the art world, and will provide critical feedback and resources on a career-focused topic.

Members can RSVP on the forum to set a reminder.
