Plus\, incredible news: This year\, we have a $2\,500 match from Nancy T. Shivers\, doubling the impact of your donations. Help us reach our $5\,000 goal and support the Gemini Ink Cary Clack Scholarship Fund\, enabling emerging writers in our city to bring their stories to life. \nGemini Ink’s mission is to teach the craft of writing to people of all skill levels so they can bring their stories to life. As San Antonio’s Writing Arts Center\, we provide a supportive home for readers and writers of all levels through our online and in-person workshops and literary community. We believe everyone has a story and writing that story is powerful. Our strategic vision is to teach 12\,000 people how to bring their stories to life by 2024. \nAnyone can apply to the Cary Clack Scholarship Fund.
