A Conversation with Art: Writing Ekphrastic Poems

Main Library Adult Program [1]
Program Room 2B [2]

Sunday, April 28, 2013 | 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm

Have you ever tried writing a poem about a painting or sculpture you love? How about composing one about a piece of abstract art where you can invent the story or jump off from an evocative title? Remember during childhood when you looked at a painting and imagined a whole new world? A picture is a painting without words, Horace once said. Please join us in exploring several poems by well-known poets based upon art and in creating one of your own. No experience necessary. This program is cosponsored with the Writers Guild of Bloomington. Please register.
