"WORDS THAT PAINT: THE HUDSON VALLEY SCHOOL IN POETRY AND PROSE"

HVCCA’s exhibition “PEEKSKILL PROJECT V: The New Hudson River School” provides the setting for this unique night of short plays and poems inspired by art from the exhibition.


 


“Words that Paint: The Hudson River School in Poetry and Prose” is a collaborative art experience brought to you by HVCCA and Director Mara Mills. Writers from throughout the region were invited to visit the exhibition, and then submit short plays or poems inspired by works of art. The resulting works were juried and assembled into this theatrical performance.
