It’s that time of the year again! Ocho at the Havana Hotel in downtown San Antonio has teamed up with the city Public Library Foundation’s First Edition Society to celebrate the birthday of beloved author, occasional Cuban resident and renowned cocktail enthusiast — Ernest Hemingway.
The birthday bash is free to attend, and will be held Saturday, July 19, from 7 – 1130 PM. Appropriately themed food and drink specials will be provided to usher in the occasion, along with live music.
VIP tickets are $30 and can be purchased at SAPLF.org by clicking on the events calendar, OR by calling (210) 225-4728 ext. 10. VIP guests will enjoy complimentary drinks and hors d’oeurves, as well as terrace access.
