This open mic is for writers of all types and stripes. Bring your poems, essays, excerpts, short stories and more. Sign up on arrival to reserve your spot. Space is limited.

The key tenets of Lit Mic summarized: be kind and make some noise.

The slightly longer version: Art is personal and political. We are kind and respectful. Keep it real, but keep it civil. We are here to celebrate art and artists. Check any pretentiousness and bad vibes at the door. We are NCW’s loudest open mic. Whistle, clap, cheer – show these writers some love.
