Mission
The mission of Casa Libre en la Solana is to support and enhance the creativity of professional and novice writers by providing uninterrupted time for work through residency programs; and to provide a venue for classes, readings, and other professional development opportunities.

Our Name
Casa, of course, is house or home. Libre, so close to Libro (or book), means free, and en la Solana = in the sun (or sun room, as in Solarium). So, roughly translated from modern day Spanish, Casa Libre en la Solana means Free House in the Sun.
