Open Mic

Every Thursday night we open our doors to everyone for one of the best Open Mics in Columbus. We open up the stage for anyone who wants to share their art, particularly musicians. Doors open, and signups start at 7:30pm and the open mic kicks off at 8:30.

If you're looking for an open mic with a piano to play we've got you covered with a beautiful antique upright piano. Please only bring instruments that require minimal set up time. In other words, you can bring a drum or two, but not your entire Neil Peart replica drum kit.

We don't have many rules, but we do ask one thing. Please recognize that not everyone will agree, and the beautiful thing is we can all come together and make a difference. We want everyone to feel welcome. If you have a message to get across, do it through your art and be respectful of others' beliefs.
