From Homer to Keats, poets have always found inspiration in visual art, translating visual literacy into a verbal art form. In Art Smart/Word Smart, we will explore a variety of artworks, find the ones that inspire us, view through our eyes, and express them with our pens. You’ll become Ekphrasis Detectives, exploring visual art to discover its secrets, and translate those secrets into our own collaborative and individual poetry. After this workshop, you’ll be an expert in using visual literacy to promote verbal literacy.
