This post contains our 2016 distinguished guest artist, Betty Branch. Our mission at Artemis is to foster excellence in the arts and literature by presenting distinguished artists and writers, as a forum for many contributors to debut their work.
Artemis is pleased to present the photograph “The Beauty of Simplicity” by William Cates, (published in Artemis 2016) and an essay by Cara Ellen Modisett, “From Interstate 81” (published in Artemis 2014).
Maurice Ferguson, our distinguished Literary Editor has been with Artemis since the early days in the 1980’s, serving on our Board and editing various yearly journals. Here is one of his fine poems, “The House on the Mountain”.
Artemis is pleased to be working with Carilion Clinic’s program of “Poems in the Waiting Rooms”, by providing take home brochures of poetry in their clinic waiting rooms around the region. This is a natural fit for Artemis as we believe in the healing power of art and poetry. Here is a testimony by one of our gifted artists, published in the 2015 and 2016 Artemis, Tricia Scott.
