Short Story Contest Meets the Book Fair… A Weekend Focused on Women’s Voices

A quieter plan for the weekend… but a good one.

What’s On

The Women’s Short Story Contest joins the Santa Cruz Book Fair 2026 with two round tables.

Saturday, May 2

🗣 “Las mujeres cuentan”
🕛 12:00 – 12:45
📍 Espacio Cultural Alfonso García Ramos
(Parque García Sanabria – fuente de los cisnes)

Sunday, May 4

📚 “Tras el telón, la mirada del jurado”
🕚 11:00 – 11:45
📍 Espacio Cultural Ángel Guimerá
(Paseo Rambla, Parque García Sanabria)

The Idea

Two sessions…

  • One centred on women’s storytelling
  • The other on how those stories are judged and selected

Worth Knowing

It’s not a big stage event…

More about listening, sharing ideas, and giving space to writing that doesn’t always get it.

If you’re already heading to the Book Fair, it’s an easy one to drop into.
