About this Event

Join us for Indy Reads Lit Stage on the last Wednesday of each month at 6pm (except when Indy Reads is closed for holidays).

The word Lit is short for literacy, the mission of Indy Reads! Lit is also a popular Black cultural word that means something is entertaining or exciting.

The Lit Stage open mic welcomes people of all ages, art forms, and languages to share your talents with our shared community. Open mic performances can include singing, monologues, skits, dancing, comedy, poetry and essay reading, and more!

Performers are welcome to use the stage area, podium, and microphone. We ask that performances keep to about 5 minutes. Participants can perform again if time allows.

Please note the Lit Stage open mic is family-friendly. Explicit language, gestures, and behaviors are not allowed. If you are including music in your performance, we require radio edits only.
