The Opening of the Ekphrastic Art & Poetry Showing was a Great Success

The Opening of the Ekphrastic Art & Poetry Showing was a Great Success with 75 to 100 attendees looked at art created in response to poetry and read poems created in response to art. Artists from the Firnew Farm Artists Circle and Poets from the Poetry Society of Virginia created art and poetry inspired by each other’s work.

The showing will continue throughout March at The Arts Center in Orange, VA, concluding on March 30 with a poetry reading.

Four of my poetry collections are now on sale at The Arts Center in Orange. Purchasing there helps the center and its mission.

There are only unjust wars���even the necessary ones

Because when government and religion are one, the religious suffer
