Events

We are excited to create a gathering of talent from our wonderful community! Doors 7pm, Open Mic starts at 7:30 pm

Join like-minded patrons looking to display their skills in music, song, poetry, storytelling, comedy, and more…

Although most Open Mics have sign-ups the night of the event, as a library we need to know we have some performers interested in attending. Please register below (and we will also save some time for walk in sign-ups)!

The All Ways Writing Circle offers time, space, community, and inspiration to get some writing done. This is for anyone who wants to write—in any genre—and would benefit from dedicated time. Facilitated by Lily Greenberg, participants will be offered a prompt, approximately 45 minutes to write, then a chance to share their work in a warm and supportive group setting. No experience needed, all genres welcome. Snacks and drinks will be provided. Admission is $12.
Participants are encouraged to register on Eventbrite. Walk-ins are also welcome, and can pay at the door by cash, check, or Venmo.
Starting July 11, 2024, our venue is Creative Arts Workshop https://www.arts-workshop.com/ , 171 Main Street Nyack, NY.

Our weekly poets circle, Circle Up, is happening every Thursday night from 6 PM to 7 PM at X House in Nyack. This week, I’m thinking on doing a performance/delivery workshop, but usually we do either writing or editing. If you want weekly emails or texts about that, let me know and I can add you to the proper list. If you can swing it, cost is $5, paid directly to the venue.
