About this Event
WHAT TRUTH ARE YOU HIDING UNDER YOUR METAPHORS?
Welcome to Monsters Under My Metaphors—a creative meetup and poetic showcase presented by Youniversal Services and Stillwater Lounge.
We all have stories beneath the surface. The truths we dress in metaphors. The feelings we turn into art. The parts of ourselves we are still learning how to express.
This gathering invites poets, musicians, writers, visual artists, and creatives of all kinds to share work that aligns with a truth they’ve hidden under metaphors.
Whether you’re ready to step up to the mic, share your creative work, meet like-minded people, or simply enjoy an evening surrounded by authentic expression, there’s room for you here.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- A poetic showcase and creative expression
- Opportunities to connect with fellow artists
- Honest perspectives, layered stories, and meaningful conversations
- A welcoming atmosphere for creatives and supporters alike
YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE AN ARTIST TO ATTEND.
Come curious. Bring a friend. Be open to a different perspective. You might hear something that puts words to a feeling you’ve never been able to explain.
