The Art Center in Grand Junction for an unforgettable immersive writing session with Wendy Videlock. RSVPs are strongly encouraged as we will move about the Art Center and would like to plan accurately. Wendy will guide you on using art as a tool for reflection, activating your imagination, and evoking vivid description in all types of writing including memoir, nonfiction, fiction, and poetry. Writers of every genre will enjoy and benefit from these exercises whether you write thrillers, cozy mysteries, historical fiction, poetry, holiday letters, blog posts, technical manuals, or anything in between! In the world of poetry, this is known as ekphrasis, “a literary device consisting of a vivid, detailed description of a visual work of art.” The Art Center has generously opened every gallery to the WCWF for this session. The art exhibits on display that night are: Terry Shepherd +1: Clay Vessels 2024 Exhibit The Sky is the Limit – an exhibition focusing on clouds as the primary subject matter The 7 Principles of Art and Design: Shape – featuring works from The Art Center’s Permanent Collection Kephart: Collector’s Exhibit We encourage all writers to RSVP for this special writer’s night session!
