MOUTHFUL
An Open Mic for Open Minds

New Voices Open Mic is proud to announce a new night and a new name! Mouthful: An Open Mic for Open Minds will meet every second Friday of the month to turn the mic over to your original writing in any genre - and after the reading we’ll adjourn to a local eatery to chat informally about writing and whatever else comes to mind. Come to read or come to listen: our goal is to build a community of writers and readers that supports women and their allies.




7:15 PM signup, 7:30 PM start.


$5 donation requested at the door.
