For many Dominicans, the neighborhood bodega is more than a corner store. It is a gathering place, a cultural archive, and a second home. Join authors Hilda Eunice Burgos (the Bodega Cats series), Abel Veloz (The Last Bodega in Jersey, Vol. I), and Amaris Castillo (Bodega Stories) for a conversation on writing Dominican-owned bodegas as living characters, exploring memory, migration, community, and the everyday moments that make these spaces central to Dominican life. Moderated by Angy Abreu of the Dominican Writers Association.
