What to Expect at Our Open Mic?
Our open mics are about meeting, connecting, and sharing in art and community. We encourage everyone to share a bit about themselves, talk to new people in the room, and stay to the end in order to get to know others and truly be in community.
The Monthly Open Mic takes place at The Perch Music & Arts Studio, equipped with a Steinway piano, microphones, Bluetooth speakers, guitars, bass, and ambient lighting, all at your disposal. Of course, you're free to bring your own instrument or equipment too.
Everyone, whether performing or enjoying, needs a ticket. Secure your spot with advance tickets—capacity's limited at the door, but often available! Late attendees welcome. To perform, just sign up at the door—first come, first served. Performers recieve up to 10 minutes of stage time depending on number of performers that evening.
