Write Night: Sip & Write Fundraiser for CHIRLA

Attention writers, creatives, and keyboard warriors: Join us for an evening of community, creativity, and collective support.

This year has tested our community — from devastating fires that destroyed entire neighborhoods to ICE raids threatening our neighbors. Now more than ever, we need to come together.

How it works: Bring your own writing project or use one of the provided prompts. We’ll gather over craft mocktails, share some conversation, and then ease into focused writing time. There will also be space to collaborate with fellow creatives, exchange ideas about your projects, and brainstorm ways to channel your energy for good.

Want to join? Donate $25–50+ to reserve your spot. Every dollar will be donated to - the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights.

Every contribution makes a difference. Ready to write with purpose? It’s an intimate space, so save your spot today!

PS: Snacks and NA drinks will be available for purchase (with proceeds going to CHIRLA as well), but you’re welcome to bring your favorite snacks to share with your fellow writers.

Meet your hosts:

• Krystie Yen, creativity coach and co-founder of Slant’d (an AAPI publishing house)
• Kristin Wong, writer and journalist
• Burden of Proof, a non-alcoholic bottle shop and market in South Pasadena
