First Thursdays Epic Poetry is a monthly series where we gather live on Zoom to read, discuss, and make sense of some of the longest living epics that have influenced literature, popular culture, and how we think about the past.

The live Zoom classes are designed to give you confidence and support you as you read between our live gatherings.
