FULL SCHEDULE
Champaign-Urbana has a strong literary tradition spanning decades from The Red Herring Poetry Workshop through today’s CU Poetry Group as well as many other community poets and poetry groups. Pygmalion Literature Poetry Marathon is a gathering of 20+ poets over two nights doing what they love to do – sharing their work, their passion, their poems in public. These poets have been selected on the basis of their work and stage presence.
CU Poetry Group is a weekly workshop for community poets dedicated to keeping poetry visible in Champaign-Urbana through public readings, poetry contests, and community outreach.
