Log in Resize text The Magpie by Claude Monet, 1869 Discover the power of reflective writing guided by teaching artist and museum educator, Mary Hall Surface. Inspired by Claude Monet’s The Magpie and poetry by Mary Oliver, explore the lessons that this season offers us when we slow down, look closely and reflect. Designed for writers of all levels, the workshop invites you to look outwardly at paintings and poetry and to look inwardly through writing. These reflections can become fertile ground for memoir, poetry, and more. Each workshop has a limited enrollment to maximize interaction among the instructor and students. Surface is an award-winning teaching artist, playwright, theatre director, and museum educator. She has presented her art-inspired writing workshops at the National Gallery of Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum, Kennedy Center, Washington National Cathedral, Phoenix Art Museum, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Harvard's Project Zero Classroom and the Chautauqua Institution (2025 Literary Arts Writer in Residence).
