Macondo Writers Workshop was founded in 1995 by writer and poet Sandra Cisneros, who gathered a group of writers, artists, scholars, and activists in her San Antonio home for informal writing workshops around her kitchen table. Since then it has grown into a master’s level workshop for professional writers in all genres.
