The Art Official Showcase! (OPEN MIC)

Celebrate creativity at ArtOfficial Open Mic, happening every 3rd Saturday at Irving Fine Arts Academy. We kick off with an open mic that spotlights rising and established talent from across the DFW metroplex, then cap the night with a featured performer. The mic is open to everyone—singers, poets, dancers, and musicians. Bring your best piece, cheer on your fellow artists, and experience a community where REAL art lives.
