Poet's House

We welcome you to join us at Poet's House, a writing studio for beginning and experienced poets. Come with paper and pen and leave with a poem or two!

Poet’s House tackles a different topic each session. Students write from prompts and are guided through exercises; they read, experiment, and generate new work; and they meet fellow writers, creating an open and friendly space to talk about poetry and support each other with their craft. Poet’s House is open to Stanford affiliates only.

The sessions are led by Creative Writing lecturers
