Found Family Collective Presents Friday Night Mic

Join us at Corner Club (1502 E Sligh Ave. Tampa, FL 33610) on February 16th for Found Family Collective’s queer-focused Friday Night Mic. Check out Corner Club's menu!

Pre-registration is not required; you may attend without registering even if no tickets are available!

Share your art in a brave, inclusive space! Everyone under the rainbow is invited to participate by performing and/or cheering on performers from the audience.

Feel free to share:

• Poetry
• Fiction
• Song and/or dance
• Drag
• Monologues
• Comedy
• Another talent/passion!

We encourage content that focuses on the wide-ranging and beautifully complex nature of the queer experience. Unburden yourself, share your joys, find catharsis, and much more.

We also encourage attendees to get to know each other and make some new friends as part of Found Family Collective’s mission to build connections within the Tampa Bay/St. Petersburg LGBTQ community!

RSVP today and get ready for a night of fun, free creative expression.

Note: Corner Club is not a sober space, but there are drink alternatives to alcohol available for purchase, as well as food and pastries. If you require props or equipment, we ask that you bring them yourself and become familiar with how to operate them. A microphone and speakers will be provided by the Found Family Collective.

Who is the Found Family Collective?

We are a grassroots, multi-cultural, multi-identity collective of transgender, lesbian, gay and queer community members who believe everyone deserves love and joy. We imperfectly but intentionally operate on five core values: self-determination, honesty, anti-oppression, restorative justice, and empathy.

ACCESSIBILITY: Our goal is to make this event as accessible as possible. If you need assistance attending our event, or if we can do anything to make the space more accessible, please contact us as soon as possible. We will make all accommodations when possible and practical. If you are, or know, an ASL interpreter willing to donate their time for this event, please advise.

Contact Angel at [email protected] or 813-777-0742 (text first, or leave voicemail if calling) for accessibility or safety questions, concerns, or suggestions.

HARM, SAFETY & CONSENT: Our goal is to maintain the safest, most accessible space possible. There are no 100% safe spaces. In the event harm should arise at our event, when it is safe to do so, we aim to remain in community with all and transform and repair harm. However, anyone who intentionally, recklessly, and/or continuously dishonors the core values of the collective, the consent or boundaries of anyone, or the collective agreements of the space may be asked to disengage the space.
