Ongoing Porter Street Mural Project:
Hot and rainy days have delayed Tricia O’Neill’s progress on the new mural, but we hope to have it completed very soon. Keep an eye out for Charles Olson—soon to be joining his longtime friend Vincent Ferrini on Porter Street. Special thanks to Tom Lance and the Brass Monkey for his longtime support!
Upcoming Events
Join us for readings and talks by local and international writers and scholars, Fish Tales storytelling evenings, and more!

Annual Charles Olson Lecture
Miriam Nichols, Professor Emerita at the University of Fraser Valley, will give this year’s annual Charles Olson Lecture, presented at the Gloucester Stage Company in partnership with the Gloucester Writers Center. Nichols will discuss Charles Olson’s early poems written during World War II and the ways he re-imagined the possibility of agency in the public sphere under seemingly impossible conditions.
Workshops + groups.
Hone your craft and make connections in a peer-led group or in one of our workshops, led by experienced writers and teaching artists.
