The Rooftop Poetry Club
The Rooftop Poetry Club was established in June 2005 to provide a creative venue for writers of the Buffalo State College community, though the club is open to everyone. Through poetry readings, open-mike events, workshops, and campus wide poetry projects, the club has proven itself an invaluable forum for the WNY writing community and an asset to the entire college.
The layout of Butler Library is unique in that it contains a second-floor center courtyard called the "Rooftop Garden." Those of you who are unfamiliar with rooftop gardens may not appreciate the poetic nature of such a space. But if you've ever sat up on a roofaway from the world, yet smack dab in the middle of it allyou can surely see how one might be drawn to read, write, and think in such a space. The rooftop garden is a perfect meeting place for the Rooftop Poetry Club. Simply walk up the center steps of the library to the second floor and look to your leftyou'll see the door leading you out to the rooftop.
Rooftop events are 4 p.m. in the International Students Reading Area (3rd Floor, SE Quadrant) unless otherwise indicated.
