“Art In a Poem” Show Opening

Throughout history, visual art and works of poetry and literature have been tied together to build on the power of both mediums to communicate. This year, Studio 103 is honored to collaborate with poet and writer, Ann Spiers. Ann offered her poem “Enso: Open, Closed” from her recent publication “Wild Cucumber,” and over 27 artists responded with their visual responses to this evocative poem. The public is invited to vote for their favorite for the People’s Choice Award – one of three cash awards to be presented during our Second Saturdays Artist Reception and poetry reading. We hope you can join as at one or both of these events.
