Beacon Art Show Poetry Workshop and Performance TOMORROW at 10am

Ekphrastic Poetry Workshop: Saturday, March 1, 2025 from 10am-12pm Pacific
Follow-Up Reading: Sunday, March 16 at 2:00 PM
Location: San Luis Obispo United Methodist Church, 1515 Fredericks St.

Tomorrow, I will be hosting the annual United Methodist Beacon Art Show Ekphrastic Poetry Workshop. Every year, a poets gather to write poems inspired by pieces of art from the show (also viewable online at BeaconArtShow.com).

Whoever would like to participate can send me the poems and I produce a zine with each poem paired with the art that inspired it.

Two weekends later, on Sunday 3/16, we will all meet for an open reading of the poems written through the workshop. The church is located off Grand at 1515 Fredericks St. in San Luis Obispo.

It’s always a fun and inspiring time, and I’m honored to be hosting the poetry workshop and reading for my second year, succeeding Jeanie Greensfelder and Glenna Luschei. Join us!
