Holiday Break: Ekphrastic Writing at the VMFA [ages 9-12]

Ekphrastic writing is simply a fancy way of saying "writing about art." In this class, we'll look at famous art from different eras and use them as inspiration for our own creativity. If you're ever in a writing rut or want to start writing but don't know how, ekphrastic writing is a great place to start! Take inspiration from other artists around you and try your hand at your own creations.
