VISUAL/VERBAL: An Exhibit by Women of Words

Date/Time

Location

Palmer Public LIbrary (1455 N Main Street, Palmer, MA 01069 MA)

Six visual artists, who have been meeting monthly since 2019 to share their writing, will display work that involves visual images and the written word at the Palmer Public Library from Wednesday, September 4 to Saturday, September 28. Calling themselves Women of Words (WOW), they have collaborated on previous group projects, such as online readings, exhibits, and the creation of a 12-panel accordion book. And they have continued to work individually each seeking ways in which their visual art enriches and reflects their writing.
 
On Thursday, September 12, from 6-7:45 pm, the artists will hold a Reception at the Palmer Public Library and read from their written work. They will then host an Open Mic, inviting local authors to sign up and read for 3-4 minutes. The Open Mic sign-up sheet will be available at the Reception, offering time slots for a limited number of readers.
 
On Tuesday, September 24, at 7 pm, the six artists of VISUAL/VERBAL will present an Online Reading, free and open to the public, with time for discussion, questions, and comments from the audience. Preregister for this Zoom event at the website.
