Events

Though known for its competitive sports teams, USC also organizes an array of stimulating events throughout the year, including the English department’s Boudreaux Visiting Writers Series and Frank N. Magill Poetry Series, as well as the University-wide Visions & Voices series, which features diverse and dynamic performances, lectures, and discussions that extend the arts and humanities beyond the classroom. USC also hosts the annual Los Angeles Times Festival of Books — one of the largest literary events in the nation. Click the links below to see a sampling of our events.
