Show and Tell: A Monthly Gathering of Shared Things
Show and Tell is a stage for the things you’ve been aching to express — art, performance, experiments, obsessions, or the story that’s been living in your notes app. Whether it’s a painting, a half-written song, a strange object you can’t stop thinking about, a dance you’ve been practicing, or the puppet show you cant stop daydreaming about. We believe each person is a talent according to their means, so if it is longing to be expressed by you, it belongs here.
Each month we gather with a new theme to thread us all together in a hug of conversation. Your piece should answer it, wrestle with it, or turn it inside out. You get up to 10 minutes to share — how you use that time is up to you.
Show and Tell is part playground, part laboratory, part treasure chest. A space to experiment, play, and be surprised by what others pull out of their pockets. Come as you are, share what you’ve got, and let curiosity do the rest.
Sign-ups are night-of, though, we cannot accept fire spinners as an inside act. We’ll keep going until the voices wind down or the wind whispers it’s time to go home.
🎤 Hosted at Nola Beans — with warm nosh, booze and caffeine drinks, plus plenty of cozy company.
Doors at 7pm · Mic at 7:30pm · Soft Close around 9pm

What worlds live behind your eyelids?
You might read us a fairytale, act out a skit where you dream the impossible, share a painting of a new world, or perform a piece of experimental theater expressing what you want to see in the world. The stage is yours to dance and explore.
