Writers of all levels of writing accepted. ArtSpeak/From Page to Performance continues to evolve. We are a welcoming group of diverse writers using an Ekphrastic approach (visuals and using ALL our senses) A monthly packet is distributed that includes: long and short poetry forms poems and writings of new diverse authors, discussion of craft prompts to jump-start your writing, hone your reading aloud and performance skills creates opportunities for writers to perform at BDAC
I believe: We are all speakers. We are all artists. We are all writers. We are all poets.
