Art in the A.M.
A Performance of
Songs, Stories & Visual Art Art in the A.M. is a monthly performance featuring visual artists, RBWG writers, and songs by musician Stuart Vining. The works of art displayed on this page (scroll down) serve as the writing prompts instead of a theme or a song, as we typically use at “Night of Songs and Stories.” Think of the event as a "three-act play," with each act consisting of 2–3 writers reading work inspired by the artwork; the artwork display along with the artist discussing the work; and a musical performance inspired by the artwork.

Painting is the most beautiful of all arts. In it all sensations are condensed, and contemplating it, everyone can create a story at the will of the imagination–Paul Gauguin August Event Sponsor
