About the Writers Series
CCA’s MFA Program in Writing proudly offers the Writers Series, a year-round literary series that features a continuum of talented, successful, and, in many cases, world-renowned writers and poets.
The series is both a curricular requirement (Friday Seminar) for our first-year graduate students and an integral part of the college’s celebrated public programs schedule.
All events are free and open to the public. Unless otherwise noted in the event listing, events are held from 4:30 to 6 p.m at the CCA Writers’ Studio.
