The Creative Writing Lecture Series
This schedule is subject to change and more details will be available in the future. Please return soon to check for updates.
The Creative Writing Lecture Series, now in its fourth year, brings distinguished writers to Columbia for original talks on literary craft. The writers are diverse and brilliant, with a wide range of artistic strategies, and each talk turns into a short course on the challenges of making vital literary art. Among our past guests are George Saunders, Zadie Smith, James Wood, Jonathan Lethem, Lydia Davis, Michael Chabon, Lydia Millett, and Aimee Bender.
All events are free and open to the public. Dodge Hall and Philosophy Hall are on the Morningside Heights campus of Columbia University, at 116th Street and Broadway. Sponsored by Columbia University School of the Arts Writing Program.
