Fil-Am History Month Romance Panel
Saturday, October 25 at 7:00 PM
Join us for a special evening celebrating Fil-Am History Month and the incredible Filipino voices shaping the romance genre today!
We’re thrilled to welcome Kaye Rockwell, Mia Hopkins, Elle Cruz, and Vanessa Lanang for a lively and heartfelt panel discussion — featuring stories of love, heritage, and community.
Enjoy coffee from Teofilo Coffee Company as we gather to highlight Filipino authors and celebrate the joy of romance together.
📍 Location:
Ideal Body Chiropractic
112 W Commonwealth Ave, Ste B
Fullerton, CA 92832
Due to Anaheim City’s Halloween Parade taking place the same weekend, we’ve moved this event offsite to avoid street closures near the shop.
A huge thank-you to Ideal Body Chiropractic, a fellow Filipino-owned business, for generously opening their doors to host this celebration. 🤍
🚗 Parking:
Parking is available in the structure marked in green on our map. Please avoid parking in the small lot near the office, as parking there isn’t permitted.
The venue is located in an alley off Commonwealth Blvd!
Come for the stories, stay for the community — we can’t wait to celebrate with you! ✨
- Books available: All panel authors’ books will be on sale before and after the talk, and they’ll be available for signings/albums, depending on each author’s availability.
