Ekphrastic poets find their inspiration in works of visual art. The poems they write imagine, describe or expand upon the “story” of an image, and each individual poet creates unique works of poetic art, separate from but related to the visual art. In this workshop Sarah Z. Sleeper will teach you methodologies so that you can confidently approach this exciting cross-genre art space. You will work in the lovely Inspirations Gallery and will create one or more of your own ekphrastic poems. The art will be the current show in Inspirations, “Through the Veil.” Please Note: This class will be held IN PERSON at our space in Inspirations Gallery (2730 Historic Decatur Rd., Suite 204, San Diego, CA, 92106). While masks are not required, they are encouraged. Thank you! Follow on social media! Facebook + Instagram
