The Foundry is a club of writers, for writers. It is a group of writers that get together to discuss the subject of writing. Any member can bring his or her own writing into a meeting to be discussed. Also, any member may make a comment on someone else’s writing. We also discuss our favorite stories, poetry, drama, and songs. It's a great place to meet fun people and share inspiration.

Mission Statement:

1. Provides a supportive, critical forum for students interested in sharing and improving their poetry, fiction, and/or nonfiction writing;
