WESTPORT — MoCA\CT will host a special event this week that combines poetry, jazz, and visual art for a unique immersive experience.

Art + Sound will take place at 7 p.m. on Thursday, April 9th. The event celebrates National Poetry Month and complements MoCA\CT’s exhibition Art, Jazz + the Blues, which is on view through June 7th.

Norwalk-based spoken word artist Sahmra Sawyer (Supreme Divinity) will perform original poetry inspired by the exhibition with the accompaniment of live jazz music. During this performance, Bridgeport artist Lauren Clayton will create a large-scale painting, “translating spoken word and sound into a visual work before the audience’s eyes.”

Tickets are $30 for general admission, $20 for students and seniors, and $15 for MoCA\CT members. For more information, click here.
