One, Poet Lore was founded in 1889 and is America's oldest poetry journal. The other, Writer's Carousel , appears six times a year with articles about writing, reviews, a market section, and a calendar of literary events in the region. The center is a place where writers can meet other writers, share ideas, make friends, and be at home. Take a look at some pictures or learn about our staff . The heart of our program is in the 240 workshops we offer each year .
Workshops are informal, small groups in which participants can share work with one another.
Meeting as colleagues, writers can give each other support and suggestions. The Center is also running a full program of workshops for children and workshops in Web publishing. The Center is governed by a Board of Directors, which is chaired by John Hill. This Web page is funded in part by the Maryland State Arts Council as the Maryland Writers Literary Resource Center.
