Pleiades Club

More a creative circle than a single writer, this Greenwich Village club left behind a lively snapshot of New York’s artistic life in the early 1900s. Its yearbooks gather poems, essays, and other pieces shaped by a community of writers, artists, and performers.

About the author

The Pleiades Club was not an individual author but a New York arts association centered in Greenwich Village. It was founded in 1896, incorporated in 1902, and remained active into the 1930s.

The club brought together artists and people interested in the arts, hosting regular dinners, performances, and other social and creative events. It also supported emerging talent, including through scholarships, and published its own yearbook, The Pleiad.

For audiobook listeners, works credited to the Pleiades Club are best understood as collective publications rather than books by one person. They offer a small but vivid window into the literary and artistic culture of early 20th-century New York.
