Tuesday Open Mic Information

Every Tuesday is Open Mic Night With NO COVER

Open Mike Poetry 6 PM to 9 PM.

Mathew the Know-It Poet at Poetry Open Mike.

The Ruta Maya Open Mic poetry reading is one of the longest running weekly open mics in Texas. Originally starting in 1995, thousands of poets from Central Texas and all of the populated continents on Earth have performed on the Ruta Maya stage. Hosted by David Bates, the open mike opens with a “Round Robin” open mic with no sign up list from 6 to 7 PM followed by a “Sign Up List” open mic from 7 PM to 9 PM.

Donations of canned goods and non-perishable food items are requested at Open Mic Poetry for the Poets Pantry. The Poets Pantry is a community outreach project by the poetry community on behalf of those who are homeless and stateless and also assists homeless poets with food and clothing when necessary.

The Music Open Mike is from 9 PM to 1 AM.
