Ludington Area Center for the Arts (LACA) and Ludington Writers (LW) are excited to announce a FREE Ekphrastic Workshop on Saturday, Sept 26, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The workshop will be held in the art center’s main gallery before moving to the Book Mark for further discussion and sharing.

This workshop is part of our ongoing collaboration to inspire poetry through original art, promoting literacy and supporting LACA’s exhibits.

The workshop will be co-hosted by Ludington Writers editors Josh Berliner and (Ni)Cole Birkett. Josh has selected three pieces for us to focus on.

Selected artwork includes: “Foxtrot Delta Tango” by Matthew Mroz, “SEDNA Interplanetary Deity - Undersea & Herself a Planet” by Joan Riise, and “The Spell Book” by Daniel Ereon:

We’re also hosting a public reading and open mic on Tuesday, September 29, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. in Minty Room on the 2nd floor of the Arts Center. Attendees are invited to share their ekphrastic piece, followed by a general poetry reading. This event is also FREE and open to all.

We hope to see you there!
