Two-Year College Creative Writing Caucus
Thursday, March 24, 2022
5:00 pm to 6:15 pm
The annual two-year caucus meeting provides a space to connect, report, archive, and initiate conversations about creative writing at two-year colleges as related to AWP. Additionally, this annual meeting gives the caucus an opportunity to recruit and support new members, align our work with AWP, and plan and prepare for AWP Conferences. The annual meeting is supported with an email list serve, webpage, and Facebook account to continue and sustain the work until we can meet again. This meeting will be accessible to in-person and virtual attendees.
