“Now You’re Talking!” Storytelling Open Mic

Do you love listening to true stories from “The Moth” or “This American Life” on NPR and thought, “I can do that”?! Well, now is your chance. We are hosting our fourth “open mic” storytelling night, where anyone and everyone is invited to put your name in the bucket to tell a true, 5-minute story.

Here are the rules: The story must be true, it must be about you, and it should be about a moment in your life that changed you or how you view yourself or the world. Stories can be funny, sad, heartwarming, silly – give us what you’ve got!

And if you’d just like to sit back in the audience and cheer on your friends and neighbors as they share stories from their lives, we need you, too!

We’re proud to announce our new venue and new partnership with Art Academy Long Island in Merrick, which offers art training and a new art summer camp for kids in a relaxed setting right in downtown Merrick.
