Gemini Ink, along with an estimated 200,000 people, were out in full force during San Antonio’s annual celebration of art and artists, Luminaria. With the help of our faithful patrons we collected a little over 3,000 donated books for our Libro Libre event. We pushed carts down S. Alamo street, throughout Hemisfair Park and also had the back bed of a red pickup truck filled to the brim with books of all genres. We were able to give away every single book that was donated.
Over in Hemisfair Park, Dramatic Readers Theater actor Pamela Dean Kenny read excerpts from the San Antonio Public Library’s Big Read selection Bless Me, Ultima.
We’d like to thank all of our patrons and volunteers who donated books or their time to make Gemini Ink’s involvement in Luminaria such a success. ¡Mil gracias!
