About this Event

Open Mic Night is an inclusive and vibrant evening where musicians, local and traveling bands and poets step onto a small stage, at cozy Spreading the Music on Valence to share their original works, covers, and artistic expressions. It's a supportive environment that encourages creativity and performance.

The audience, a mix of fellow artists and enthusiasts, listens attentively, applauds, and often snaps fingers in appreciation. It's a place where emerging talents can gain confidence and seasoned artists can test new material.

Our Open Mics have a laid-back atmosphere, no cover charge, and are accessible to all! Whether you're a first-time performer or a regular on the scene, it's a wonderful opportunity to connect with fellow artists, share your stories, and be part of a supportive creative community. So, if performing or simply there to enjoy, Open Mic Night promises an evening of artistic exploration and connection.
