Join the Creative Becoming community for a unique blend of artistic expression at our new Monthly Open Mic—an event that warmly welcomes creatives from all walks of artistry. Whether you're a singer, instrumentalist, poet, beatboxer, writer, or performance artist, this is your space to share and connect.

Come as you are

Here, perfection is not the aim; instead, it's about sharing, forming new relationships, building a strong community of creatively inspired people, and enjoying the creative process in a relaxed and welcoming environment. No labels of "good," "ready," or "professional" are required – just your genuine passion. It's an opportunity to test new creations, conquer stage jitters, release your thoughts, or expose your emotions to a community of kindred spirits.

Location details

The Monthly Open Mic takes place at The Perch Music & Arts Studio, equipped with a Steinway piano, microphones, Bluetooth speakers, guitars, bass, and ambient lighting, all at your disposal. Of course, you're free to bring your own instrument or equipment too.

Time

Doors open at 7pm. Performances start at 7:30pm and the last artist is at 9pm. All attendees are welcome to comfortable seating first come first serve, and light refreshments. All performers sign up at the door and receive 15 minutes of stage time.

Come to perform, come to listen, come to connect!

Feel free to contact host Elise Mark for questions or suggestions for the open min or community at large. We are currently seeking featured artists for November and December dates.
