About this Event

Poetry & Prose Open Mic Readings

Join us for our captivating poetry and prose open mic readings at the Life's Too Short Bar, located a stone's throw from Melbourne's CBD in the heart of Richmond.

Immerse yourself in the intimate atmosphere of the historic cellar, surrounded by artwork, where talented local writers will share their work. Experience the power of words as they come to life in this unique setting. Let the enchanting ambience and the rhythmic flow of the readings transport you to another world.

It doesn't matter whether you're a seasoned poetry professional, enthusiast or simply curious; it just matters that you're passionate about your craft. Rest assured, this event promises to be one of inspiration and creativity.

Your ticket includes a $20pp voucher towards drinks and/or food you wish to purchase on the day, making your ticket (almost) free - $10 goes to the venue to help cover costs. There's a daily selection of wines, cocktail of the day, beer and plenty of non-alcoholic options, as well as great coffee to enjoy, and a tapas & share plate style menu (to suit almost every dietary need).

So why not escape the hustle and bustle of the city and indulge in the magic of literature? Our Poetry & Prose is the perfect opportunity to connect with fellow literature lovers, share your inner soul, and celebrate the beauty of language.
Don't miss out on this unforgettable session of artistic expression.
