Left Margin LIT is a home for the literary arts in the East Bay. We are serious about craft, exploration, lyric, and story. Here you'll find camaraderie, tough feedback, and accountability. Our goal as a community arts center is to guide you toward your own writing destination, whether that means beginning the long labor of a novel, compiling a portfolio of work to submit for an MFA application, organizing and editing a manuscript, getting a family story down on the page, or trying out poetry for the first time. Whatever your stage or interest, if you're serious about trying it, we want to work with you. Come write with us!
