As part of the final year of study for our MFA degree candidates, students have the opportunity to present their work before an intimate audience in our Works in Progress reading series. Held in the historic and architecturally ornate Bender Room a few times each semester, students present to peers and faculty from our literature and creative writing programs.

Faculty also read their most recent works in progress, encouraging a lively interaction between students and professors engaged in the act of creating new work.

This year we are excited to announce that a high school student from Oakland School of the Arts will read at each Works in Progress event.
