Poetry Reading/Flash Visual Response for Families at the Southwest Harbor Public Library.

Saturday, April 9, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00p.m. 

Have any young artists in your family? Adults and children are welcome to create art together at the Southwest Harbor Public Library.

The library is excited to host local poet Paul Weiss who will read 3-4 of his poems and share copies with the artists in attendance. In partners or by themselves, attendees will create "flash art" - within an hour -in response to one of the poems.

There will be materials on hand to utilize during the art creation process.

At the end of the event, each poem for which visual responses have been created will be read again by Paul and the flash art for that poem will be shared.

If the artists are willing, images will be posted in conjunction with the poems as part of the Artists & Poets exhibit at the Southwest Harbor Public Library in May.
