“Sharing and Sherlocking” is a phrase used to describe a meeting where participants can present their work, seek feedback, and brainstorm new ideas.
Sharing: This part of the meeting is a platform for participants to showcase projects they’ve been working on, share their accomplishments, or demonstrate a new technique they’ve learned.
Sherlocking: This term refers to the process of solving a problem or a challenge. In this context, it’s an interactive session where members can present a problem they’re trying to solve and receive input, advice, and creative solutions from the group. The name is a playful nod to Sherlock Holmes, the famous detective.
You can email photos in advance to Barb to share if you’re not able to present it yourself.
