The Writers Salon

Join us on the second Thursday of the month for a morning of writing as inspired by art! We will explore different avenues to ekphrastic writing, or writing creatively as inspired by art, in the galleries. Exemplary writing by contemporary or historical local writers will be shared. Generative prompts will be offered to spark creativity. A community space, the Writers Salon is a welcoming and supportive environment for writers and artists of all levels and genres who’d like to engage with art in a new way!
