Ekphrastic Poetry Writing - Oct 2026

📅 3 October 2026 | 📍 Studio, 5 Church Hill Road, Woodbury, CT, 06798, United States
An ekphrastic poem is a vivid description of a scene or, more commonly, a work of art. Woodbury Poet Laureate, Sandy Carlson, will provide an introduction to ekphrastic writing, followed by a tour of the Art and Photography Exhibit in the Van Vleck House. All in attendance will have the opportunity to try their hand at writing a poem (or two) about the art alongside members of Woodbury’s Ekphrastic Poetry Group.
