On Wednesday September 18th from 12 to 1 pm, "Spoken Word – Painting with Words" will be presented by Lynne Zotalis, Shelly Barnett and Pamela Warren Williams.

The three, along with poet Leonore Hildebrandt, published a poetry collection last year entitled Upward Spiral, Poems of Opening and Renewal, available at local bookstores and Amazon.
