About this Event
Join us at Gerber/Hart for our second Queer History Open Mic on Thursday, December 10th, at 6:30 PM, for a night of queer history and community storytelling where participants are invited to share short pieces inspired by queer history in all its forms.
Got a queer story you can’t stop thinking about? An old flyer, photograph, diary entry, rumor, heartbreak, victory, or piece of local lore? Bring it to the mic! Listeners are welcome, and no expertise is required!
After registering participants will be emailed two weeks prior to the event to register for a spot on the mic if they would like to present. People who identify as BIPOC, disabled, trans or non-binary, or with another identity that isn't centered within the queer community will be prioritized on the mic.
Space is limited! The first 45 people will receive a ticket to the event - please arrive by 6:15 to take a seat! If you're on the waitlist and interested in performing, email Kaitlyn Griffith ([email protected]). Performers will be given priority - additional folks on the waitlist can arrive at 6:15 and claim any unclaimed seats!
