I was just looking at the schedule of events for the AAW Symposium in Phoenix this year and did not see a time slot for the instant gallery critique. There are couple of slots for an intimate critique, but not what I remember of the general critique. The critiquers used to just roam around the gallery and pick work that caught their eye for whatever reason. Are they not doing that anymore? Perhaps it just got too big to do it that way?

The Instant Gallery critique is Sunday 11AM in Rom 103-a
The crowds got too large to do it in the gallery. Only a few could see and hear.
Since at least 2006 the IG critique is done in demo room with the pieces on video screen so people can see what the critiques are talking.

The IG critique panel will roam the instant galley on Friday and Saturday identifying pieces to "critique"
