The Lamorinda Arts Council invites you join them for free Art Embraces Words (AEW) programs at the Lafayette Library & Learning Center Arts & Science Room on June 17 from 2 – 3:30 pm. Local emerging writers and will read from their work followed by visual artists speaking about their artwork.  Patrons are seated in the middle of the room surrounded by artwork from local artists. In this way art literally “embraces” the words spoken by emerging writers who read excerpts from their work from a podium.

Program dates in 2023 are June 17, August 12, and October 28 (Halloween Costume Program). We invite lovers of the spoken word and visual art, writers and visual artists to register online at https://lamorindaarts.org/art-embraces-words/ if they are interested in participating. Programs run from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Reception follows outdoors in the vine covered Library Courtyard. AEW is made possible by a generous grant from the Community Foundation of Lafayette. Try something different!
