Poetry Foundation

The first space in Chicago dedicated solely to the art of poetry, the Poetry Foundation building houses a thirty thousand volume poetry library (which includes audio and video recordings in private listening booths and a Special Collections section), an exhibition gallery, a performance space for the foundation’s events, and the offices of the Poetry Foundation, publisher of Poetry magazine. Programming includes author events, readings, discussions, poetry camps, and more.
