Join us in sharing queer grief, resilience, rage, joy, and love through a virtual open mic night.

This event will be hosted via zoom on Thursday, December 15th from 7-9pm. Please register at https://bit.ly/virtualopenmic1215 for the link. 

Queer bars and clubs are a refuge for our community and we are heartbroken and angered by the recent attack on Club Q in Colorado Springs. This Virtual Open Mic Night is an opportunity for people to come together, to return to that sense of refuge, and express themselves through poetry, music, prose, and performances. 

As we remember and honor those injured and taken from us in the Club Q shooting, we will share direct links to verified funds in support of both the survivors and families of victims. 

Open Mic Details: 

Slots will be ~5 minutes long; a “1 minute” reminder will be shown in the comments to assist with time tracking. 

Covers and readings of non-original work are welcome. 

We will mute attendees during each performance slot, to ensure best quality audio. 

Accessibility Details: 

The event link will only be available to individuals who register with us in advance for safety and privacy purposes. 

Automatic Zoom Captions have been enabled, and we will provide notes on how to use the captions at the beginning of the event (captions and transcript will not be able to be saved or downloaded).
