His exploration of ideas in recent years lead to the publication of The Red Dot Series, five pop-up books filled with colorful, non-representative, spontaneous Modern Art forms.

Young adults (grades 6-8) will learn about ekphrasis, the writing of poetry about art, in this interactive workshop taught by John Bowman.

Bowman is a published poet, writer and former editor and publisher of the Roseville Press-Tribune.
