** NWCC Artwork for Ekphrastic Poetry - Students are invited to write poems for this project! **
===We invite you to participate in the art show sponsored by Northwest Cultural Council. There are 16 artists showing their work at the Arlington Green Executive Center, and the show at that gallery will be held __May 19, 1-4 p.m__. The NWCC would like all the art to be paired with original poems crafted by local residents. All participating poets will be invited to read their poems at the reception. The address: 2101 S. Arlington Hts. Road, Arlington Heights, 60005. ===

===We're asking poets to write ekphrastic poems, which are poems that respond to or are inspired by a work of art. Click on the link to see the choices: ===

===If you wish to participate, please send Ms. Hutchinson your TOP 3 CHOICES of art pieces to write a poem about. She will respond quickly, letting you know which of your choices is still unchosen, at which point you may begin writing. Our hope is that all 30 pieces of art have at least 1 poem written about it, either by an NWCC poet or a local student. ===

===By **Friday, May 11,** please email your poem to Ms. H. for printing. Consider a shorter response/poem due to time and space constraints. (1 page maximum.) Please format your poem (if possible) using Garamond size 14 font, and include your name and school at the bottom of the page. ===
