The New School's Creative Writing Program curates a series of forums and special events throughout the academic year, featuring new and established writers. The forums in Poetry, Fiction, Nonfiction, and Writing for Children & YA, explore work from a writerly perspective, featuring a reading, a moderated discussion, and a Q&A with the audience. The program also hosts a variety of literary events in partnership with organizations like The National Book Foundation, the National Book Critics Circle, Cave Canem, and Kundiman.
Erin Belieu is the author of five books of poetry, including the forthcoming Come-Hither Honeycomb, from Copper Canyon Press. She teaches in the creative writing programs of the University of Houston and Lesley University.

The New School offered the first academic creative writing workshop in 1931 and pioneered a new philosophy of education. The idea: students would make their own lives and their own stories part of their education. Today, The New School continues to celebrate and cultivate daring and diverse new voices through its Creative Writing program. The value of this approach is reflected in the publications and achievements of our MFA Creative Writing graduates and faculty.
