  "description": "[TICKETS](https://thedairy.org/whatisekphrasis/)\n\nWhat happens when a work of art becomes the starting point for a story, poem, or personal reflection?\n\nFireside Ink Writers Workshop is thrilled to partner with _Off the Page_ at the Dairy Arts Center for an immersive writing workshop inspired by visual art. Surrounded by the exhibition in the McMahon Gallery, participants will explore how artworks can spark stories, memories, questions, and unexpected creative discoveries.\n\nThrough guided writing prompts, close observation, and discussion, you’ll experiment with new ways of responding to what you see on the gallery walls. We’ll look at examples of writers who have drawn inspiration from visual art and discover how careful looking can open up fresh ideas, vivid language, and imaginative possibilities.\n\nWhether you’re a seasoned writer or simply curious about creative expression, this workshop offers a welcoming space to connect art and language in new ways. You’ll leave with new writing, practical creative techniques, and a fresh perspective on how visual art can become a powerful catalyst for storytelling.\n\nNo prior writing experience is necessary. Writers of all genres and experience levels are welcome.\n\n**About the Instructor**\n\nLoie Rawding is the author of the ekphrastic novel Tight Little Vocal Cords (KERNPUNKT), a finalist for the Big Other Book Awards and one of Lambda Literary’s Most Anticipated Books of 2020. She is an editor, creative mentor, and teaching artist who works with arts organizations across the country.\n\nLoie grew up on an island off the coast of Maine. A recovering actor and dancer, she studied performing arts in Boston and worked in publishing in New York before earning an MFA from the University of Colorado. She is certified in Narrative Medicine through Columbia University and collaborates with medical practitioners to improve patient outcomes through the power of storytelling.
