How it works:
- Visit Beals Preserve, see the installations, and be inspired by their work.
- Free guided walks will be offered with poetry editor Maura Snell through the month of July. Find a date to join a walk.
- Write ekphrastic poetry, which is written specifically about or inspired by the installations in this exhibition.
- Poetry Submissions will be accepted from June 13, 2018 through July 31st, 2018.
The top 25 poems will be sent to our final judge, Didi Jackson.
