Art Walk: Poetry Walk with Monday Monologues
Monday Monologues is a lunchtime performance series hosted by the University Library and spotlights Iowa State community voices. The University Library and University Museums invite you to a Monday Monologue in honor of National Poetry Month, featuring an Art Walk with special guest Deb Marquart, Distinguished Professor and former Poet Laureate of Iowa.
Throughout its 50-year history, University Museums has commissioned numerous talented Iowa writers to craft poetry inspired by the Art on Campus Collection. Walk with us to enjoy readings of some of these poems beside the artworks that inspired them. The tour will conclude in the Christian Petersen Art Museum, with a chance for participants to share their own poetry or writing.
Art Walks are a regular event series highlighting the University Museums’ Art on Campus Collection, offering audiences the opportunity to explore the breadth of public art across Iowa State University’s campus. Led by University Museums staff, these guided tours are free and open to the public. For parking and accessibility information, please visit the University Museums website.
The tour will begin on the second floor in the Parks Library rotunda.
This guided tour will move between indoor and outdoor areas. In case of inclement weather, the tour will be moved indoors.
