Bagley Wright Lecture Series on Poetry

Since 2013, the Bagley Wright Lecture Series has provided leading poets with the opportunity to explore in-depth their own thinking on the subject of poetry and poetics, and give a series of public lectures resulting from these investigations. Lectures are delivered in partnership with organizations nationwide, including the Poetry Center. In February 2018, the Poetry Center co-hosted “You Are Who I’m Talking To: Poetry, Attention, & Audience,” a three-day conference featuring the first six BWLS lecturers.
