Work by poet/teacher/creator Dr. Rebecca Macijeski will be featured in a Shreveport exhibit set to open next week. “How To Stay Curious” will be a highlight of Critical MASS 13, a showcase of talent that spans visual, literary and performing arts.

Macijeski will be honored during an opening reception from 5-8 p.m. Thursday, June 18 at Artspace, 708 Texas St., Shreveport. The Critical MASS art series brings together a diverse range of artists and their innovative works.

Macijeski is an associate professor and coordinator of Creative Writing Programs in Northwestern State University’s Department of English, Languages and Cultural Studies and serves as faculty advisor for Argus, the school’s annual student literary magazine. She calls the upcoming show “the intersection of poems and quilts, and whatever the fabulous other winners in the visual and performance art categories have been up to.”
