From Kim Thompson, the Artistic Coordinator at Pi:

im in the process of setting up a regular open mic at pi bar and restuarant for the 1st thursday of every month.

we’re hoping that this will be a regular event and would like to start it the first thursday of this june.

so the first step is finding a female mc to host the open mic. (she does not need to identify as queer but she must be queer friendly and alert and sensitive to queer issues and artists… and this call is open to trans identified m to f as well) the mc will receive a stipend as well as some drink comps.

if you or someone you know is intrested in doing this please email me at: (and i will send more details to interested parties)

we are open to different possibilities in terms of having one perm mc or two mc’s who rotate etc… but we would like the mc’s to be on regularly as they will be the driving force behind making this a success.
