POEM-ing

Washington Art Association & Gallery is presenting POEM-ing on Thursday, August 18th at the WAA Gallery in Washington Depot.

Created as a kind of “poetry on the tongue” event, several local poets including Davyne Verstandig and Dimitri Rimsky will improvise poetry inspired by the music of Barry Blitt, Doug White, Don Bracke and Nick Jacobs. There might even be some music improvised in response to longer recited poems! The audience is invited to participate by drawing pictures inspired by the words and the music. Sketchbooks and colored crayons will be provided. Join us at 6:00pm for refreshments and enjoy the Drawn to Love members exhibition in the gallery.

The free 90-minute program starts at 6:30pm.

There will be an opportunity to make a donation to benefit WAA.
