Caltech Poetry Club Meeting

The Caltech Poetry Club meets every Friday from 4:30 to 6 PM at tables by the Red Door Cafe. The most dynamic poetry center in the scientific world! Bring a poem of your own to read for friendly comments by other poets, you can also bring a favorite poem you'd like to share. (Bring 10 copies of your own poem if possible.) Or just listen and enjoy the poetic conversation. We always read poems by other contemporary and historical poets. Topics have included Wallace Stevens, William Butler Yeats, the Korean Sijo tradition, Mel Weisbud, M. Kei Neil McCasrthy, Pabo Neruds, William O'Daly, Denise Levertov. We also schedule writing sessions and readings at inspiring spots on our beautiful campus. We've shared poetry inspired by scientific lectures at Caltech. We performed 2010 for the Caletech Center for Diversity, "A World Tour of Women". As science steps out on the edge of knowledge and discovery, so do the poets walk into the unknown with their words. Look for Kathabela's flowery hat to identify the group table.
