Victoria Blanco invites you to join her in a workshop about writing in two (or more!) languages.

​Victoria Blanco is a Minneapolis-based writer who mixes English and Spanish on the page.  She grew up in El Paso, Texas, ​about ten minutes from the U.S.-Mexico border.

This workshop is supported by a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board.  The East Side Freedom Library is honored to host this workshop.
