Write! Chicago March 14th

Hello Poets!

     The next Write! Chicago outing of Poets & Patrons is scheduled for Saturday, March 14, at the Ukranian Institute of Modern Art.  We will be viewing  “Convergence: A Poetic Dialogue” which is an exhibition of collaborative works created by twenty pairs of visual artists and poets.  Two of the poets will be giving a reading at 2:00 pm.  Also on display  from the permanent collection is “Abstract Way” featuring art that seeks to break away from the traditional representation of physical objects by exploring form and color.

     We will meet at the Institute when it opens at noon for our tour and afterwards adjourn to Shokolad (Ukranian for chocolate), a bakery cafĂ© down the street, to write and share.

     The Institute is located at 2320 W. Chicago Avenue, west of the Kennedy Expressway, near Western Avenue.  Unfortunately it is not easily accessible by public transportation, but street parking is readily available.  The closest parking lot is several blocks southwest at 4116 N. Artesian, near the intersection of Western and Grand.

     There is no admission charge to the Institute but a donation of $5-10 is suggested.  If you plan to join us, please contact Debby Rohde at debby.rohde@sbcglobal.net.
