Ekphrastic Poetry Workshop

Ekphrastic Poetry Workshop

The Litchfield Arts Council is teaming up with the Litchfield Historical Society to present an Ekphrastic Poetry workshop on Sunday, April 26, from 2 to 4 p.m. Attendees of all ages are invited to the Litchfield Historical Society (LHS) at 7 South Street, Litchfield, for an ekphrastic poetry workshop that will be led by Sandy Carlson, Woodbury’s poet laureate emerita and managing partner of Orenaug Mountain Publishing (OMP).

Participants will learn about ekphrasis–poetry about art–and then be welcome to write about the art and historical objects in the LHS museum. The Litchfield Arts Council and OMP will publish a chapbook of participants’ poems.

This event is free. Register to attend here or by sending an email to Litchfield Arts Council member Thomasina Levy at ThomasinaLevy@gmail.com.
