March 27, Saturday, 10am – 5pm
The Crossroads Poetry Experience with Joan Schulze
Joan Schulze will talk about her beginnings as a poet, when and how she gained her public voice, her approach to the written word, and how it all relates to her works on the wall. She will show some private deconstructed poems in the form of books, and will also guide participants through a physical tour of her current exhibit in the main gallery of the Museum--always referencing the challenges she faced along the way to the widespread acceptance that recognizes both her mastery of the quilting format and her parallel excursions in the realm of poetry. More about Joan Schulze and her work.
