Open Mic FAQ's

- Our stage is a home made for Black creatives.

- We invite ALL disciplines.

- That includes comedians, musicians, poets, actors performing monologues, dance, etc.

- The open mic goes live at 6 pm when the doors open. The list fills quickly so try to get there earlier.

- If you can't get there early, that's okay. Every interested performer gets a free raffle ticket.

- We alternate between calling from the list and the raffle ticket.

- Artists have 5 minutes to perform on stage.

- Artists can perform one piece.

- If you have instrumentals, be ready to airdrop them.

- Be prepared to perform acapella if there are issues sending your instrumentals.

- Your art must be respectful to the people in the space. To our community.

- With the exclusion of February, if you have won a Second Mondays event in 2024, you can perform but you can NOT place.
