Sheryl Oring: I Wish to Say

Studio 8 - New Project Studio

As part of National Poetry Month, the Torpedo Factory Art Center hosts Sheryl Oring's I Wish to Say in the New Project Studio. I Wish to Say grew out of Sheryl Oring's concern that not enough voices were being heard about the state-of-affairs in this country and her belief in the value of free expression that is guaranteed under our Constitution. For this project, Oring sets up a portable public office - complete with a manual typewriter - and invites people to write postcards to the President.
