    Explore the MFA collections to find inspiration and content for your writing. Discover the deep relationships between visual art and poetry. The class includes presentations of artists and poets, group discussions, and a personalized tour of the galleries. Develop a polished poem or short prose and complete your project by creating an optional audio/video performance of your written work accompanied by fine art imagery or your personal photography.
