Join us for an evening of poetry and art!

In conjunction with the exhibition Cities and Memory, Fenwick Gallery and Mason Exhibitions will host a poetry reading and discussion of ekphrasis, considering the relationships between the verbal and visual arts. Cities and Memory features the visionary architectural drawings of James Rossant, paired with poetry from his daughter, Juliette Rossant.

Ekphrasis: A Celebration of Poetry and Art will feature short readings and conversations with Mason faculty and Juliette Rossant, followed by a reception in Fenwick Gallery.

This event will be held in person at Fenwick Library on GMU’s Fairfax campus. We will begin at 7:00PM in Fenwick Gallery with a welcome and review of the exhibition, followed by the readings and a reception in the Fenwick Main Reading Room from 7:30-8:30PM.
