Poetry in Motion was created in support of Mayor Abernathy's Poetry on the Water project. A poem was chosen to represent The Art Center, and then 25-30 artists were asked to interpret the poem on an 8" x 8" canvas in any medium. The result is a diverse collection of interpretative and creative works of art

As a guest to Poetry in Motion, you will have the opportunity to create your own interpretation of the poem on cards that will hang from the gallery ceiling, creating a true motion of art and poetry.

Please join us for an exciting Closing Reception on April 3rd from 7-9pm to see the completed poetry project. This reception is free and open to the public and will feature live music, a wine and cheese reception, a poetry slam and a meet and greet with the artists to see and hear their interpretations of the poem.
