Artful Writing: An Ekphrastic Workshop In-Person

Discover the power of visual art to spark poetic and narrative expression in this generative workshop led by Barbara Krasner, author of Poems of the Winter Palace and The Night Watch. Using works from Impressionists to Surrealists, participants will explore tone, mood, and form through timed prompts in any genre. No experience necessary—just curiosity and a willingness to experiment. Krasner, a Pushcart Prize nominee, teaches at Mercer County Community College and edits its literary magazine, Kelsey Review, bringing deep expertise in ekphrastic writing and literary craft.
