Help us bring great stories to life.

Literary Lights is a giving circle made up of Gemini Ink supporters who help us achieve our strategic vision to help 12,000 people bring their stories to life by 2022. Literary Lights underwrites the cost of year-round programming for students from all backgrounds and ages, from at-risk youth to seasoned writers.

Will you be a founding member and help us light up the minds and lives of San Antonians through impactful encounters with the writing arts?
