Community Forge Open Mic Night feat. Jamillia Kaye
Join us for our October open mic! This month, we're celebrating poetry and storytelling. All art forms and genres are welcome, from live music and singing to multidisciplinary art and comedy.
Featuring Jamillia Kaye: A West Philly native by way of Liberia, West Africa, and Pittsburgh Adoptee, Dr. Jamillia Kamara Covington is a scholar, artist and new mama. Her work explores the themes of identity, belonging and legacy through the lens of community, creativity and culture.
Performance sign-ups are first-come, first-serve. We have a wonderful live band, so please be prepared to provide guidance on how you'd like them to support your performance, or bring your phone to play your track so the band can bring it to life.
