Season 1

Art critiques are usually held behind closed doors—in classrooms, studios, and private galleries. Everyone’s a Critic breaks that tradition. We bring the critique into public space, giving artists a bold, memorable platform to be seen, discussed, and celebrated. Let’s critique some art, together! Each season, 25 visual artists are selected to showcase one artwork. Weekly episodes are released online via YouTube, where the community engages by voting on the artworks that resonate most. From each episode, the top five works advance as finalists. One artist ultimately rises above the rest, earning the season award + prizes! The season culminates in a live, in-person Season Finale, where the final episode unfolds in real time and guests participate in the critique alongside judges and the community. Season Finale events blend live art critiques, a pop-up gallery, and a silent art auction into a single, immersive night—where conversation, competition, and creativity meet.
