Ring in the New Year with Kingston's Artel Open-Mic Reading Series on January 1. Always held on the first Tuesday night of the month, this month's reading will run from 7:00 to 10:00pm. There will be a short intermission with light food and beverage provided.

For those coming to read/perform — The assured time limit is 8 minutes. But prepare for longer if you like, because on nights with fewer readers that time limit will expand a couple minutes or so.

This reading series' mission is to be a reading held in an inviting, warm, accepting and acoustically sound "safe" space where the diversity of work, style, word and voice are welcome, always — a comfortable space for poets/writers to read/perform, and for the audience to relax and enjoy.

This evening will be recorded for playback (with permission) on CFRC 101.9fm's "finding a voice". And this event also offers a two section display table: "the revolving free library" and "words for free/barter/sale".

The event is free, with all donations going directly to the Artel, and is an open event, so feel free to invite or bring friends as well.
