What happens when you take locally grown fresh produce and mix in one artist, several poets, and an art center? Slow Food Coshocton is participating in a creative endeavor with local farmer/vendors at Local Bounty; former Coshocton resident and artist Stephanie Revennaugh; local poets Robin Mullet and Holli Rainwater, among others; and the Pomerene Center for the Arts.
This is how it works: Over the next several months, “care packages” of locally produced food will be mailed to Revennaugh who now lives in Montana. She will create a painting of the food. In the meantime, local poets will write poems inspired by the food items. The whole project will culminate in September with an art show/poetry reading/dinner at the Pomerene Center for the Arts.
One painting and a few poems have already been created. Revennaugh will be posting the finished paintings on her Facebook page. She is also asking for help in naming the paintings.
Stay tuned for more information on this creative project as it develops!
