Gemini Ink Holiday Open House

Don’t miss Gemini Ink’s annual holiday gathering. Join us at 1111 Navarro as we eat, drink, celebrate our collective creative accomplishments, and merrily toast the closing of 2023 with our literary community of writers and friends.

We’ll gather around and listen to a wonderful sampling of stories from our Voices of San Anto bilingual storytelling workshop, with Eddie Vega and Marisela Barrera. We’re excited to share some amazing videos with you from our Literary Video Lab. Lastly, we’ll be honoring ??Volunteer of the Year for 2023, Violeta Garza!??

Drop by when you can, leave when you need to , but stay long enough for a little eggnog and comfort food. Wine, non-alcoholic beverages, and coffee will be served. We will provide the main fare, but you are also invited to bring a store-bought or prepackaged food item to share. Keeping with our annual tradition, we’ll have a table of books to trade and give away. Please bring a book to share.

We can’t be San Antonio’s writing arts center without you!

We appreciate Violeta for sharing her time, infectious laughter and poetic heart with us and our extended literary community. Please join us as we celebrate Violeta’s contributions to our team with a special volunteer spotlight!

She has also performed her original poems and stories for Texas Public Radio, The Alamo Chapter for Human Rights, The Curtain Up Cancer Foundation, Voices of San Anto, and elsewhere.
