For the second year in a row, the Services to Artists Committee hosted the 2026 CAA Portfolio Review and Industry Advice for Artists. Emerging and established artists across all media received valuable feedback, guidance, and professional insights from leading industry professionals. Participants brought portfolios, writing samples, and questions to this drop-in event, building connections and advancing their practices. We were able to offer around 80 portfolio review sessions!
Thank you to all the mentors for generously sharing their time, expertise, and guidance with participating artists.
