About this Event

Rescheduled to 2/2 because of FREEZE!

Notsuoh has long been a home for vibrant open mics—where poetry, music, and performance art have come alive in front of a supportive community. After years away, the open mic has returned to 4th Mondays and is now hosted by Rokit of the local band Fern and Rocket.

This is an open invitation to share your words, sounds, or performances. Whether you bring poetry, music, or performance art, we welcome what is passionate, heartfelt, and experimental. Together we’ll continue the legacy of Notsuoh as a space where creative energy is nurtured, community is built, and experimentation is ALIVE & KICKING! Come to perform, or come to listen and be part of the community (or come take pictures! We love our photographers!) .

Sign up at 7pm! Come early if you want a spot, it fills up fast!

Free entry included w/Drink Purchase to get upstairs!
