- A group that meets to write, discuss, and critique poetry on the second Wednesday of every month. It was established by then-Library Director Terry Pickens and poet James Tipton in 1992, after they attended a conference on poetry in Utah. It was run by Tipton and fellow poet Luis López. When Tipton left, López ran the group for seventeen more years, eventually handing it over to Jennifer Rane Hancock. When the group began, the group would bring in poetry to read.
