To explore the relationship between poetry and the visual arts, the Library of Virginia and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts welcome the Smithsonian Institution's ever-popular presenter Dr. Aneta Georgievska-Shine. Join us for a magical evening as we delve into the “undying love affair” between poetry and master works of art. The program will include a presentation copy of a new work: The Muses, a limited edition booklet created exclusively for the event. The Muses will feature a selection of nine works of art from the VMFA's collections—chosen by the nine museum curators—each accompanied by an original poem written by one of nine award-winning poets. A wine-and-cheese reception will immediately follow the program. For more information, call Kat Spears at 804.692.3620
