About this Event

Heart on Paper is an intimate author reading series exploring love, desire, and the quiet storms that shape us.

Join Vancouver-based writer Srishty Dhawan for a soft, immersive hour of storytelling, reflection, and connection.

In this session, Srishty will read from her upcoming novel, Passion Unveiled Series, sharing lyrical passages centred on Nina, the young protagonist whose emotional and sensual awakening unfolds against Vancouver’s rain-soaked landscape.

A brief Q&A will follow for attendees who wish to engage, listen, or ask about the creative process.

I encourage you all to dive into your passion for reading and writing, and create something of your own to share with us.

This gathering is intentionally small to preserve its warmth and closeness. As this is officially our second meeting, the 20 guests on the list will be given the opportunity to reserve their seats for our Heart on Paper III Summer event.


Limited to 20 guests. Ages 18+ only.

📅 Date: April 24, 2026
⏰ Time: 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM (Door opens at 6:45 PM PST)
📍 Location: SFU Harbour Centre — Xerox Conference Room 1500

If you’re drawn to lyrical writing, intimate storytelling, and the slow, transformative journey of a young woman finding her voice and desire, Heart on Paper is a space made for you.
