We continue our commitment to supporting and uplifting the vital words of all poets and writers of color.
Lannan Center for Poetics and Social Practice at Georgetown University is a literary, critical, and pedagogical undertaking devoted to the situation of poetry and poetics in the contemporary world.
Lannan Center hosts a variety of programs throughout the academic year, including our Readings and Talks Series and Symposia.
The Center fosters critical inquiry among students and faculty into the aesthetic, social, political, and cultural implications of the language arts. It gives pedagogical emphasis to innovative learning and writing, and embraces connections between poetry and other art forms.
