I Scream Social: Day at the Park (Spring)

In dreaming up springtime activities, we're immersing ourselves in the gorgeous Texas spring with our classic afternoon coffee chat at the park, botanical pressings and a poetry workshop, and closing out our park day with an I Scream Social with a twist: an adult spelling bee hosted by Claire Bowman.

I Scream Social's A Day at the Park — a seasonal literary event that aims to deepen our friendships within the local writing community and raise funds for Host Publications to continue publishing radical poetry and fiction. Each season will feature a community meet-up, seasonally-appropriate crafts, a Host Publications book sale, and close out with a classic I Scream Social event and ice cream!
Our (Spring) Park Day Schedule:
✦ 12pm - 4pm :: A New & Used Small Press Book Sale
✦ 12pm- 1pm :: An I Scream Socialist Meetup w/ coffee & pastries
✦ 1pm - 3pm :: Botanical Pressings & Poetry Workshop
✦ 3pm - 4pm :: Adult spelling bee + free popsicles!
