Words Meet Art: Call for Submission
Words Meet Art
At Fifth Street Writers
Call for Submission
The Ames Writers Collective is seeking “two-dimensional original art” submissions for an exhibition at Fifth Street Writers located in downtown Ames, Iowa.
Media can be oil, acrylic, watercolor, collage, etc. Pieces chosen for the exhibition will be featured at Fifth Street Writers Words Meet Art events.
Words Meet Art is a literary arts event demonstrating through words how art evokes feelings, triggers memories and stories, and inspires conversations across divides and demographics.
During our Words Meet Art events, writers create prose, memoir or poetry in response to an exhibit of artwork or photography.
Sometimes, we simply write in a group and read our work aloud to one another. Other times we hold public events where writing is performed for an audience.
In the past we have held spoken word and writing events at the Octagon Center for the Arts in Ames, Iowa and the Christian Petersen Art Museum at Iowa State University.
Fall 2025 Exhibition date TBD.
