Untitled Open Mic

 

Our regular open mic is where the Lowell Poetry community comes together. Held on the first and third Wednesday of every month, we welcome not only poets, but also singer-songwriters, beat-box artists, comedians, and more – anyone who wants to step up to speak their truth to our listening audience. The open mic is non-competitive -- anyone can sign up for a spot, regardless of experience or background – and our community is known for its attentive welcome. The Untitled also hosts featured poets, chosen to do a 20 to 30 minute set, and we pay them a small honorarium for their work. These features are sometimes members of our regular reading community and sometimes come from outside of the area. In the time of the Covid-19 pandemic, we have experimented with hosting these events online and, when the weather allowed, in outdoor venues. We are committed to continuing this community forum, in one form or another, for the foreseeable future.
