Mad
Art Supper Club
Open
Mic Night!
October
27, 2024, at 4:00 pm
Rockafeller’s Kitchen (421 Prospect Street, Long
Branch)
Dear
founding members of the Mad Art Supper Club;
Feel free to share with a friend or bring them as your guest.
We all had such a great time and such great food and
poetry. A member of the press has been invited to cover
this new open microphone event for new poets and poetry.
Summary
quick notes:
- There
will be a sign-in sheet and generally, performance
readers will go in order of sign-in,
but all have the option of waiving their slot to the next
reader. Heck, maybe you’re there for just the great
meal.
- Timeframe
is to meet and greet from 4:00 pm to 4:30 pm.
Rockafeller’s allows
BYOB so feel free to bring a bottle for a
relaxing pre-dinner beverage before dinner. As
always, moderate consumption encouraged!
- Dinner
will start at 4:30 pm and last until 5:00 pm.
I’ll have a few brief remarks before we start the
readings.
- Performance
readers can read for the group any selection they wish; however,
the event is focused on new or evolving work.
Readers can read as many as five
pieces, but ask that total reading time be under seven
minutes. This is more generous than other Open
Mic gatherings that I’ve been at in the last several
years.
- If
you like, please bring a printed copy of one of your
readings. Toying with the concept of creating a
mini-chapbook that can be shared via the Spoken Word
Poetry newsletter. Great way to share your work,
gain exposure and build community!
- Readings
will end no later than 6:15 pm.
There will be a short set of closing remarks and
discussion.
- There
will be three door prizes!
WooHoo!
- There
will be a few other resources for sharing as well.
- If
you’d like at add a friend at the last minute, the payment
link is below. Please no later than noon the day
before. That’s when I’ll call Rico about the number
attending. He’s also offering a vegan option for our
reserved guests, but please let us know ahead of time!
