Stay tuned for future opportunities!

Ekphrasis is captivating because words are used to re-imagine in a myriad of ways a visual work of art. Amplify the volume by interviewing your favourite creative piece. Think “Vincent”, a masterful song (and poem) created in response to Van Gogh’s Starry Night. Curious about how? Rosemary Miguez and Gayle Halliwell, closet poets and accomplished visual artists, lead this 2-hour interactive Zoom workshop that will give voice to your hidden talent as a writer, poet, or songwriter!

Join them as we learn from Vincent (see YouTube link), explore other works and re-imagine your chosen works of visual art.

Please pre-register to receive a follow-along handout, Zoom link, and additional instructions for participation.
