Next Open Mic Night at Grace: October 30!

Calling all musicians, poets, actors, comedians, (and audience members!):  Join our GLC Last Friday Open Mic night!!

Open Mic Nights are held on the last Friday of each month (hence the name!) in Luther Hall. Our goal for these sessions is to provide a safe, sober, and fun evening of entertainment, while raising money for local charities.

What are the hours for the open mic?

Doors to Luther Hall will open at 6:30PM.  Performances will run from 7PM to 10PM(ish).

Is there an admission fee?

We ask that you please make a cash donation as you are able. Also, snacks and soft drinks will be available for purchase. All proceeds will be donated to local feeding and sheltering charities.

 How do I sign up to perform at the open mic?

Just show up starting at 6:30PM the night of the open mic and put your name on the list to perform.  Performers will be called to take the stage in the order in which they signed up.

How long will I be able to perform?

Each performer (individual or group) will be allotted a maximum of 15 minutes stage time.  Musicians will be allowed maximum of 15 minutes or 3 songs, whichever comes first.

What can I perform?

Songs, skits, poetry readings, comedy routines…all are welcome.  These can be original material or covers of existing material, and both secular and faith-based performances are welcome.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  As this is a family-friendly event, all performances must be PG-rated:

Keep the language clean.  Words in the Bible are OK. All other of THOSE kinds of words (you know which ones) are not welcome.

No material glorifying alcohol or drug abuse is allowed.  (If planning to sing a country music song, that still leaves plenty of songs about pickup trucks, dogs, and mama).

No material inciting violence or espousing hatred of others is allowed.

If I am a musician planning to perform, what do I need to bring?

Just bring your instrument.  We will supply the backline, including amplifiers, vocal mics, instrument mics, cables, and PA/mixer.

Please do not bring drum kits.  If you play the drums and would like to participate by playing on a kit, contact David Gulick to discuss. Feel free to bring cajons and hand-held percussion instruments (maracas, tambourines, etc.). We will have some of these already on hand.

Our 3rd Annual FREE Community Thanksgiving Dinner

Thanksgiving is generally a time of fellowship, food, and family. But for many, one or more of those elements may be missing. Some are far removed from family by geography or relational strain. Some are lacking resources for food.

Grace Lutheran Church's "Feed My Sheep" Ministry invites any seeking food, fellowship or family to come to our 2nd Annual FREE Thanksgiving Dinner. This Dinner will take place on Thanksgiving Day, November 26 at 2:00 PM, in Grace Lutheran Church, Luther Hall, 300 Roseberry Street, Phillipsburg.
