Ekphrastacy celebrates visual art with live poetry written in response to our current exhibitions. Join Heights Poet Laureate Siaara Freeman and guest poets Beks Freeman, Carrie George, and Philip Metres as they respond to Irrational Objects: Backwards Into the Future. Artists will also discuss their work. RSVPs are requested for the event but it is pay what you can for entry. Read more and RSVP here.

The exhibition on view that poets will respond to, Irrational Objects, takes its inspiration from the many fantastical and utterly illogical objects created by the Dadaists and Surrealists in the opening decades of the 20th century. The concept behind the exhibition is two-fold: using the ideas and methods of the original Dadaists and Surrealists as a roadmap of sorts, the exhibit seeks to pay homage to the world that these iconoclastic artists conjured while also presenting something timely and relevant that speaks to our current age and circumstances.
