The Kelly Writers House is a mixed-use programming and community space on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.

Founded in 1995 by a group of students, faculty, staff, and alumni of the University of Pennsylvania, the Kelly Writers House (3805 Locust Walk, Philadelphia) hosts more than 300 events and projects per year, such as readings, art exhibits, lectures, seminars, film screenings, manuscript exchanges, tutoring programs, and literary celebrations.[1] Most events are open to the public and live-streamed on the internet for worldwide viewing via KWH-TV.[2] All Writers House events are free. Writers House also sponsors or hosts several publications, including student run magazines such as Penn Review, Penn Appetit, and F-word, as well as the international online magazine of poetry and poetics Jacket2.[3][4]

Partially funded by the Provost's Office of the University of Pennsylvania, Writers House is also supported by "Friends of the Writers House"—alumni, Penn parents, Philadelphians, and other literary-minded and generous people interested in creative enterprise.[5] The Writers House is also sustained by members of the Writers House Planning Committee (known as "the Hub"), the core group of writers and writing activists who plan events, offer ideas for new initiatives, and dedicate their time to literary activities.
