Calling all beginning and advanced poets!

Join Left of Center and the Black Mountain Institute at UNLV for three free poetry workshops designed to engage both beginning and experienced writers in “ekphrastic poetry.” Ekphrastic poems are written in response to works of visual art, and these three workshops will utilize Left of Center’s collections to help writers generate original poetry.

Please note: you will receive an email confirming that you have a spot in one, two, or all three workshops, depending on available space. Please also note that the African Art Museum inside the Left of Center Art Gallery is only accessible by stairs.

Read the descriptions for each of the workshops, then let us know which you’d like to attend. Please only sign up for those you can commit to, as space is limited and we want to be sure everyone gets a chance!
