In conjunction with the Crossing Over Writing Retreat, THE WRITER’S STUDIO presents:

 

The Writer’s Studio Reading Series: Ars Poetica, Poems about The Art of Poetry

 

On Saturday, October 8 at 7:00 pm, at The Historic Cokesbury Church on the corner of Market and West Streets in Onancock, Virginia, THE WRITER’S STUDIO will host a reading of poems.  

 

This event is free and open to the public. You do not have to be a poet to attend. You only have to love or be curious about poetry.

 

Wallace Stevens asserted that “Poetry is the subject of the Poem.” We will gather to hear poems about poetry and reflect on the art of poetry.

 

“The poem of the mind in the act of finding / what will suffice…” Wallace Stevens

“Tell the truth but tell it slant…” Emily Dickinson

“The room of marvels.”   Andre Breton

 

Please bring a poem about poetry to read aloud or simply come to experience an evening of poetry.

 

Sign-up will begin at 6:45pm.

 

For further information about the reading or THE WRITER’S STUDIO please call or email Elaine Fletcher Chapman: thewritersstudio.elaine@gmail.com or 757-650-8735 or www.thewritersstudio.wordpress.com
