"Traveling Stanzas" is presented in celebration of 40 years of the Wick Poetry Center at Kent State University and curated by Annie Cyrus.
The exhibit runs Aug.20 through Oct. 12, 2024. Admission is free and open to the public at the KSU Downtown Gallery.
About Traveling Stanzas
Launched in 2009 as a collaboration between Kent State University’s Wick Poetry Center and Professor Valora Renicker’s Visual Communication Design students, Traveling Stanzas began as a project that paired poems generated in community writing workshops with graphic designs and disseminated the artwork on public transportation throughout Northeast Ohio. From its inception, Traveling Stanzas has continued to evolve and innovate, finding new ways to bring poetry to people’s everyday lives, facilitating creative and healing conversations nationally and internationally in such sectors of our communities as education, healthcare, literacy centers, libraries, national parks, museums, social service agencies for refugee and immigrant populations, senior centers, and veteran’s organizations.
Traveling Stanzas have been translated into numerous languages, exhibited in locations around the world, including at the March for Science on the National Mall in Washington D.C., at The Universe in Verse reading in Brooklyn, at the Tuscan AngloAmerican Festival in Florence, Italy, a multinational War Memorial in Lyon, France, and a holiday market in Slovakia. Now through a suite of creative tools, in both digital and analog form, as well as a system for viewing and disseminating community voices, Traveling Stanzas offers poetry as a means for people of all ages and backgrounds to engage in a deeper and more meaningful conversation with themselves and each other, promoting cross-cultural understanding and empathy.

The School of Art Collection and Galleries presents: ”Stephanie J. Woods: The Genius of Play."
Oct. 25 – Nov. 26, 2024
Gallery: CVA Gallery
Location: Center for the Visual Arts (325 Terrace Drive, Kent, Ohio).
This exhibit is free and open to the public and has been brought to you with support from the Ohio Arts Council.

Each year, the Curlee Raven Holton & Raven Fine Art Editions Distinguished Art Fellowship invites artists of national and international reputations to engage with KSU students, staff, and the broader community. Established in 2023 by artist Curlee Raven Holton, this fellowship seeks to highlight underrepresented artists and "close the gap" on students' understanding of artistic communities outside of their own. In 2024, The Curlee Raven Holton & Raven Fine Art Editions Distinguished Art Fellowship welcomes artist Stephanie J. Woods.
