Virtual Open Mic Night
Friday, 22 May 2020
8:30 PM ET
Following on the success of last month's Open Mic Night, GTA is excited to announce the next in a series of open nights. As artists everywhere continue to grapple with the impact of the current global health crisis on the performing arts and many people find themselves distanced from friends and family, the GTA is hosting another virtual open mic night to provide the Georgetown community with a place to gather and share some art. Join us with a song, a poem, a monologue or just your lovely self for an opportunity to be together.
The event is BYOB and BYOP(ets).
