Theme: Please check house calendar of events at thephilosophershouse.org for current theme.
(Note: your story does not have to fit into the theme of community but if you are looking for a creative challenge, feel free to try and match the theme!)
Step into an evening of stories with local storytellers at our brand-new Open Mic series, hosted in our cozy living room space for community, creativity, and connection. From 6:30 to 8:00PM, we invite storytellers to take the mic for 5–7 minute slots. Whether you’re a seasoned performer or taking your first leap, this is a welcoming space to share your voice.
Sign-up opens at 6:15 PM, so come early and grab your spot. Each evening also features a 20-minute set by a featured storyteller, offering a deeper dive into the power of narrative to connect and inspire. The featured teller for this month, and beyond, could be you! Contact Vianna for details. Wander through the teahouse, grab a cup, and let the stories inspire you!
Cost: 5.00 donation to teahouesnonprofit or food and drink purchases encouraged. All are welcome regardless of ability to pay.
Location: Living Room/Fireplace, 1st floor
