Mission Statement

The mission of Inprint is to inspire readers and writers in the greater metropolitan area of Houston, Texas. Inprint was founded by a group of community leaders who sought to address a need in Houston for greater support and appreciation of the literary arts. They envisioned Houston as a city of letters, a place where the power of the written word is vital to the lives of its citizens. Inprint aims to achieve this vision by stimulating a vibrant literary life within the city among diverse social, racial, economic, and age groups, and by supporting the distinguished and growing University of Houston Creative Writing Program.
