Open Mic co-hosts Pgh Poetry Collective’s yearly Grand Slam will be held at City of Asylum on this particular date. As a courtesy to our poets who regularly attend, so they may instead attend PPC Grand Slam, we will be offering a unique OPEN ART NIGHT for our more visually persuaded creatives, celebrating the great bard’s birthday! Carrie Clayton from Local Provisions will lead a guided tour for artists of every medium. We’ll be working with live models, having open discussions about our processes and mediums, and mentoring other artists. Dying Breed Tattoo & Stony Montana Tattoo will be tattooing.
