December Writer’s Night: Open Mic

Our annual Open Mic Night is Tuesday, December 3 from 6-7:30 pm at the Art Center in Grand Junction.

Bring your short works and poetry and take the mic!

Last year we had several readers, so keeping a time limit did allow everyone to have a shot at the mic. We will have a timekeeper again this year, and due to community requests, we are upping the time limit to 6 minutes, so plan accordingly. Please do not read as fast as you can to fit those 6 minutes, but rather practice ahead of time and cut where needed. The audience would love to enjoy your work rather than try to keep up with auctioneer-level utterances!

A 30-line poem takes about 2 minutes to read, and a 700-word story takes about 5 minutes. If we can do more than one round, we will.

We would appreciate RSVPs for seat-planning purposes, and please note that readers will sign up on-site.
