π March's Beacon Art Show Ekphrastic Poetry Reading
Zoom ekphrastic poetry meeting Saturday 3/19 at 10:30am
Please join me for an ekphrastic Zoom open poetry reading this Saturday, March 19 at 10:30am.
The Virtual 14th annual Beacon Art Show is running now through April 3. This year, the ekphrastic poetry workshop (hosted by Glenna Luschei) has been canceled. In it’s place, I invite you to participate in it virtually! Optionally present a poem this Saturday based on one of the pieces in the show.
- Review the artwork at beaconartshow.com/#gallery
- Write a poem based on the artwork.
- Add a link to the artwork (or the name of the piece) next to your name on the Sign Up sheet.
- After the reading, feel free to send your poem to Janie at beaconartshow@gmail.com with the title and name of the artist, and Janie will send the poem along to the artist.
5 minutes to read, original work. If you’re interested in being part of it, please sign up for a time on this Google spreadsheet. The Zoom information is on there too.
Hope to see you every Third Saturday!
Ben.
