Description: The UP Writers Club has been the University's finest literary organization since its inception in 1927. The Club has not just continually produced Philippine literary giants (7 National Artists for Literature were UPWC members namely Virgilio Almario, Edith Tiempo, Manuel Arguilla, F. Sionil Jose, NVM Gonzales, Jose Garcia Villa, Nick Joaquin) but society movers as well. The UP Writers Club is determined to live and perpetuate its legacy of literary excellence and social commitment. The Club continues to nest the next generation of writers by holding regular writing workshops, literary readings, organizing the Writers Night and other significant events in cooperation mostly with the UP Institute of Creative Writing (UP ICW), Unyon ng Manunulat sa Pilipinas (UMPIL) and the National Commission for Culture and Arts (NCAA).
