Berlin Library Seeks Entries For Art/Poetry Exhibit

Berlin-Peck Memorial Library

BERLIN, CT — The local library is seeking art and poetry submissions in March that will be part of a unique exhibit there mixing both the generations and the artistic mediums of art and poetry.

The deadline for art submissions is Friday, March 1, while the deadline for accompanying poetry submissions is March 25.

"This Spring, the Berlin-Peck Library will be hosting a multi-generational poetry and art exhibit on the theme of growing," wrote the library this week.

Artwork submitted by patrons and inspired by the theme will be assigned to a poet anonymously.

The poet will then write a poem inspired by the piece of art they have been assigned.

On the evening of the reception on April 11, the library will celebrate both the poem and the artwork that inspired it.

"There will be an opportunity to participate in both the call for poetry and art. We are thrilled to offer this program to people of all ages," wrote the library.

The Berlin-Peck Memorial Library is located at 234 Kensington Road, Berlin.
