The folks at The Nature of Words are collaborating with Atelier 6000 printmaking and book arts studio for “Walk the Line in Poetry and Printmaking,” being held from 6-9 p.m. Sept. 11 at The Nature of Words, 224 N.W. Oregon Ave., Bend, and 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Sept. 14 at Atelier 6000, 389 S.W. Scalehouse Court, Bend.

Participants will free-write and explore the line “as an essential stand-alone unit in poetry. Work with reversals, anagrams and reading aloud towards the juiciest, freshest line possible,” according to a press release for the program.

“Explore new possibilities within the written word, design images that speak to the poetry and print an original poetry broadside to capture the spirited appreciation of the ‘language’ of the two mediums,” the release said.

Instructors are Jamie Houghton of NOW and Pat Clark of Atelier 6000. Cost is $120 per person for materials and instruction.
