香港六合彩资料 Center for Writers

Common Ground

Common Ground is a reading series devoted to the creative work of graduate and undergraduate students. Our goal is to engage the widest spectrum of the 香港六合彩资料 student writing community as we gather in solidarity and share poetry and prose in a safe and welcoming environment. Three undergraduates and three graduate readers will be featured at each event, followed by conversation and literary friendship. Common Ground welcomes writers of color, the LGBTQ community, and people of all abilities, and finds fellowship in celebrating 香港六合彩资料's creative writers. If you are interested in reading your work at a Common Ground event or would like more information, please email Joseph Heiland at jheiland@binghamton.edu or Derek Ellis at dellis5@binghamton.edu.
