I have been accepted into the Shermer Art Center & Museum's show "Making Connections: Water and Life in a Desert City".
Three of my ballerina paintings will be in the show. Poets have been selected to write poems about the art of those accepted into the show. The show runs from October 24th- November 30th. Below is the description given on the Shermer web-site.
This exhibition will focus on the many talented poets & artists in Arizona. Arizona poets will be invited to respond to selected works from a juried competition of Arizona visual artists. The works will be presented side by side in a special exhibition called Art of Poetry, Poetry of Art. There will be a special closing event called Shemer’s Night of Sight and Sound: Where Art, Poetry and Music Merge on November 20, 2013 beginning with a poetry slam at 6:00 pm; a presentation of poets, with a DJ, and projection of the visual art at 7:00 pm.; a reading by Alberto Rios, Arizona’s new poet laureate at 8:00 pm; and a mixer/reception from 8:30-10:00pm Broadsides will be produced that feature both the visual art and the poem, and prints will be displayed in libraries, community centers, and local businesses in Phoenix, Scottsdale and Paradise Valley.
