What would it be like if Antic didn’t exist? If it disappeared? If it wasn’t here?
What we do know for sure is that, as long as we keep having birthdays at the unique Verdaguer i Callis venue (which as things stand is still under threat given the current situation with the property lease) we’ll keep on celebrating. And we’re turning 19.
The party is a return of OFF Sant Jordi, this year accompanied by our friends and colleagues from Arrebato Libros (from Madrid), On The Road, the Calders bookshop and Horiginal. New and second-hand book stalls, book signings and events in the auditorium (in the evening).
Free entrance (up to maximum capacity) to the venue as well as to (almost) all the events. Check out the
