Saturday, April 26, 2025, 2 – 4 PM EDT

Join poet E. Hughes for a workshop set in the Carlos Museum's galleries, offering a unique environment where art, history, and poetry can intertwine. Participants will be invited to draw inspiration from the museum's collections, using visual art as a catalyst for poetic creation as they are guided through discussions of poetic form, cultural dialogue, and personal expression and strategies for translating complex emotions and experiences into poetic verse.  

This workshop is designed for adult audiences. Space is limited and registration is required.
Fee: $18 for members, $25 for nonmembers, free for Emory students.


This program is part of "Art for Our Sake: Creative Wellbeing at the Carlos," a day of workshops and pop-up programs throughout the galleries and across the museum that incorporates dance, visual art, writing, music, and more. Participants are encouraged to engage in art forms that they feel drawn to, led by practicing artists, and utilize the arts as a tool to support mental wellbeing, process grief, and healing.
