SUMMARY:Part 1—Words Meet Art & Harriet Bart: Material Alchemy
DESCRIPTION:Part 1: Words Meet Art\, an outreach program of the Ames Writers Collective\, is a literary arts event demonstrating through words how art\, used as a writing prompt\, can invoke feelings\, trigger memories\, and inspire conversations across divides and demographics.

An introduction to “writing to writing prompts” will follow\, with writing sessions to connect writers to the exhibition. This session will be led by Ana McCracken\, founder of the Ames Writers Collective\, and/or an Iowa State University MFA in Creative Writing and Environment Program candidate. \nParticipants may bring their own drink and snacks for breaks.
