POETRY | ART

IN COLLABORATION WITH MID VALLEY POETRY SOCIETY

January 14 – February 26, 2022 | Annex, Camas, & Focus Galleries

Opening Night Reception (Postponed – please keep checking our website for the latest information about this and other scheduled events)

When poetry and visual art truly merge, the poetry component and the visual component co-evolve. This collaborative residency project facilitated such co-evolution, as well as shared the process with our community.

– Eleanor Berry

The Salem Art Association (SAA), in collaboration with the Mid-Valley Poetry Society (MVPS), worked with seven pairs/groups of poets, visual artists and musicians to create collaborative works in residencies at the SAA Annex and other locations, shared their process with the public during their residency, and is brought together to share the work created in this exhibition.
