Literary Events
Virtual BABEL Events
Just Buffalo Literary Center is excited to announce two virtual BABEL events for Spring 2021—once again bringing the world’s most important authors to Just Buffalo, engaging local audiences, attracting guests from across the country (and world, in this new format), and creating a global literary conversation right here at home.
Virtual STUDIO Events
Check out the groundbreaking poets and prose writers that the STUDIO series is bringing together in a free, four-part virtual series of readings and conversations during the 2020 season.
Writing Workshops
(Virtual) Just Buffalo Writing Center
Dedicated to the empowerment of young voices, the Just Buffalo Writing Center provides access to writing workshops, literary events, and one-on-one assistance with all kinds of writing. Our center hopes to help young people attain the tools they need to flourish as writers and leaders in our community.
More Virtual Writing Workshops
The JBWC also plays home to adult writing workshops for adult writers of all ages and skill levels, as well as providing workshops for encouraging and supporting the teachers and schools in our community.
