The kickoff for the newest open-mic poetry series in the Lansing area happens this Saturday, February 3, at the Gone Wired Cafe (2021 E. Michigan Ave.)! Sign up at 7:00pm; reading at 7:30pm. The event is free and donations are welcomed!
- About the Series
- The Survivin’ & Thrivin’ open mic welcomes all writers as well as expressions of poetry and prose. The series is a great opportunity to network with women writers in the Lansing area.
- About the Theme
- Our theme “respecting the lives and words of women” is inclusive of everyone. We invite artists and guests here in post-Affirmative-Action mid-Michigan to celebrate and reflect on women-identified experiences.
- About the Community
- During our November 2006 performance and open mic at the Gone Wired CafĂ©, we were struck by the event’s significance for the community: One poet resurfaced after a ten-year hiatus from reading, and a ten-year old girl read a poem she composed that night. See pictures from the November event!
- About the Hosts
- We are friends of five years and going strong who work as a team to achieve our individual goals.
