Merging Visions Exhibit March 31, 2011

In celebration of National Poetry Month, the Denton Poets’ Assembly will join up with VAST (the Visual Arts Society of Texas) in a collaborative exhibit called “Merging Visions.” This will be the fourth annual collaboration. This year, the exhibit will be held in all three branches of the Denton Public Libraries: North, South, and Emily Fowler Central. 20 poets contributed work for this exhibit. There are 38 VAST artists who "paired" their work with these DPA poets. The showing is free and open to the public. There will be a reception at the Emily Fowler branch for the exhibit on April 9th. Reception also open to the public; refreshments provided.

All poems and artwork are originals created by members of the two groups. Some of the poems are created with the artwork as inspiration, and some are inspirations for the artwork. The pairings will be displayed mounted on the walls of the libraries, available to view during the libraries' open hours. Images of all art and poetry will be captured in a publication, "Collections I," and will be available at each of the three libraries. This publication was made possible by a grant to VAST from the Denton Benefit League.
