Interested in both art and poetry? Come try your hand at writing poems inspired by the wonderful art in St. Johnsbury. In this workshop, writer Rachael Fowler will provide prompts to help you write your own ekphrastic poems. There will also be time to share what you’ve written. By the end of this workshop, you’ll have knowledge of two published ekphrastic poems, drafts of your own writing, and a list of more ekphrastic literature to explore.
