Join us for the first TELL! of the year!

MT Space’s open mic and community potluck event is back! Kicking the year off, we're inviting families of artists and performers of all ages to come showcase your talents and projects. We're inviting anyone - including kids and youth - to sing, dance, or just update us on what you’ve been working on lately. There will even be crafts table available for anyone wanting to get hands on or just chill with some crayons.

This is a casual community platform for those who are just starting out but also professionals. Whether you're a child or an adult, we ask that all sharings be kept PG-13 for this edition of TELL!

About TELL!

TELL! is MT Space's coffeehouse open-mic style event offering the community an artistic platform to share their works in a casual setting. These sharings can be performances, stories, lectures, poetry, drag, fine art displays -- any type of creation.

We know that art and food bring people together like nothing else. Join us for a potluck meal and bring a food offering* to share if you're able to. We'll provide plates, cutlery, and beverages (coffee, tea, and water). Help us reduce waste by bringing in your own reusable cups, bottles, and mugs for water and coffee!

*Please include an ingredients list for any dishes you bring.

Use this as an opportunity to get feedback from an engaged audience of fellow artists and community members, or simply show us what you've got! Bring anything you may need for your performance/presentation, including amps for instruments.

Even if you don’t have anything to present now, come and share a meal with the community. Come dressed in your sweats, or as a fairy princess, this is a space to express yourself however you see fit. This is the community platform.
