Overview

Mission

To act as an educational forum, primarily through lectures and events, for exchanging information about William Butler Yeats, his legacy and literary work, and people, places, events, and ideas that shaped his life and work. To stimulate awareness of and interest in WB Yeats's life and work. To provide information about Yeats events and organizations, particularly the Yeats International Summer School in Ireland and its sponsor, the Sligo-based Yeats Society, and other Yeats societies that, like ours, grew out of the summer school and Sligo society.

The WB Yeats Society of NY is an educational forum that promotes the life, legacy, and literary work of William Butler Yeats through lectures, events, and programs in New York City. It serves members and the public by stimulating awareness of Yeats's poetry and prose, and by connecting audiences to Yeats-related organizations such as the Yeats International Summer School in Ireland. The society also administers the Yeats Poetry Prize and the M.L. Rosenthal Award, and hosts salons, walking tours, and readings that explore Yeats's influence and his connections to New York.
