Celebrating Random Acts of Poetry and Art Day 2017 on February 20th!






Welcome to Random Acts of Poetry & Art Day 2017!  We hope you will join us for The Kindness Revolution on February 20th.  What will you create and give away, to brighten someone else's day?

SUMMARY:

RANDOM ACTS OF POETRY & ART DAY is coming up on February 20th, 2017!  Come join us (from wherever you live) to give back through the arts! This is an artistic pay-it-forward movement, meant to inspire others and provide some comfort and love through poetry and art.  In the coming weeks, we'll offer up suggestions on the RAPA Facebook page and show examples of what artists and poets have done in past years. It’s up to you what you do! Examples: leave behind free poetry cards at coffee houses, cafés and libraries; give away mini works of art / handmade jewelry / pottery / knitted scarves or hats; or donate art prints and poetry books to non-profit organizations.

Hope you'll join us. It's fun, it's free, and you don't need to be anywhere. Just give someone an unexpected gift, using YOUR natural gifts.

*Namaste* from your RAPA Day Crew!
Cristina M. R. Norcross (WI), Sonya S. Sinha (NYC), and Jennifer S. J. Peña (NJ)

This year we have an Official Event Page for RAPA Day on Facebook, as well.  Add your name, to show that you will be joining us, from wherever you live!


Have fun, enjoy, engage your passion ... create from the heart.
BE THE ESSENCE OF ART!
