Writers in the Schools Luncheon 2025
Join us for the 2025 WITS Annual Benefit, The WITS Legacy Tree: Where Roots Connect, Stories Flourish, in the iconic OUTPOST at the POST Houston on Thursday, April 17th, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM.
​
We, like you, believe storytelling reveals our truest selves and that creativity prepares children for a successful future. Proceeds from the event will support WITS' mission to unlock the joy and power of storytelling and creative expression.
​
This year’s theme emphasizes WITS' deep roots in fostering creativity, professional growth, and the continuity of its mission across generations. It celebrates the interconnectedness of the WITS family tree, which includes students, writers, board members, and the broader community. These branches extend far beyond Houston, influencing lives worldwide and inspiring community involvement.
