Multi-Sensorial Writing Walk

Join Steere for a guided multi-sensorial exploration of the grounds of the Florence Griswold Museum from Lyme Street to the Lieutenant River.
Participants will respond in a notebook provided with prompts, probing them to think deeper about their sensorial experience on the grounds. Over the course of the walk, participants will engage in several writing “starts” for a longer piece to be continued after the event.
Steere will coordinate the submission of a final work to be gathered into a class anthology.
Date: August 1, 2026
Time: 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Ekphrasitic Poetry Inspired by the Griswold Collection

After a deep dive into the process, participants will respond to several works of art on view in the Museum’s permanent collection. Participants will have an opportunity to share the results in preparation for a final version of their poem to be continued after the event.
Steere will coordinate the submission of final poems to be gathered into a class anthology.
