Making Space, Taking Space: A Reading of Work from San Diego Writers, Ink's Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) Writing Workshop

Culturally and historically, AAPI writers have been silenced, whether from collectivism to governmental exclusion and incarceration. No more. Making Space, Taking Space is a public reading of work from San Diego Writers, Ink’s AAPI Writing Workshop, facilitated by playwright Thelma Virata de Castro. The reading, featuring multiple genres and perspectives, will take place at the Point Loma/Hervey Library on May 26, 2024, in commemoration of AAPI Heritage month. A panel discussion with the writers and workshop facilitator regarding their processes, themes, and challenges will follow the reading. The event will serve as a gathering place for artistic, cultural, historical, and literary groups and non-profits to network with the writers and share resources for future research and writing.
