21st Annual Poet Artist Collaboration


  • Red Wing Arts 418 Levee Street Red Wing, MN 55066 United States (map)

Red Wing Arts is excited to present the 21st Annual Poet Artist Collaboration!

Over 70 juried artists and poets participate in this annual event which includes an art exhibit, poetry readings, and the creation of a chapbook featuring all artwork and poetry of the participants.  Approximately 35 poems submitted by Poets are chosen, and participating Artists create a new piece of art inspired by one of the poems. The joy and challenge of this event is the translation of the emotion and story of the written words of a poet by an artist into a representative piece of art.
