Poetry and Painting – Considering the Creative Spirit

Join Hammond-Harwood House Director Barbara Goyette and Lucinda Dukes Edinberg, Curator for a Poetry Workshop. Explore the connection between creating a painting and creating a poem. Learn about some of the pieces in the museum’s collection. Then try your hand at writing poetry inspired by a piece of art, an enslaved woman’s shoe, the perfect architecture, an ornate silver teapot. or a feeling about the past life of the house.
