Open Mic Night at the Newark Arts Alliance

The Newark Arts Alliance holds a monthly Open Mic Night dedicated to poetry, prose, and performance. Traditional poetry, spoken word, haiku, experimental verse – all are welcome! Short-shorts of fiction and memoir – tell us your stories! A performance piece? An acoustic music performance? Go for it!

Join us at the mic or just come to listen and support the arts. Our hosts are Robin Hill-Page Glanden, Maria Masington and Terry Foreman. For now, we are offering this event through Zoom. We will announce on our event page when we'll return to in-person meetings.

Please email Terry Foreman to ask to be added to the Open Mic Audience list. Her email is: terry@newarkartsalliance.org.  Your email will be added to the Open Mic Audience Address book and you will be sent updates and the zoom links each month.

Once you sign in at the zoom meeting time, you can then ask to be added to the readers list for that evening.

Newark Arts Alliance encourages an open exchange of ideas and artistic expression. We also wish to provide a comfortable environment for listeners. If you think your material may offend some, it likely will. We ask that you save this for readings geared toward that particular genre. Hosts have the right to use their discretion to mute anyone and not invite some guests to future readings. Readers may mute any reader they don’t wish to listen to. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
