Queer Joyride! Open Mic for LGBTQ+ Writers

Queer writers of all ages, particularly people of color and folks with disabilities who want to create a place for shared expression and connection. Our crowd is Book-Toking, snapping fingers at private salons, and reading IG poetry accounts. This open mic brings everyone together IRL to share collective joy and creativity. We foster community for LGBTQ+ writers, comics, screenwriters, and poets who want to try out new material and make friends. Allies are welcome in the audience. Writers sign in an hour before the open mic at an outside table for a 7-minute slot.

About the organizers:

Writers Ismenia Monchez @TheSalviMom on TikTok, Sonora Chase @sonorachase on Substack & Bluesky, and Jay Hagans @JayEatsStuff on Substack write memoirs and essays about the motherland, queer and trans life, travel and culinary delights, and navigating this complicated time while creating queer joy.
