Date: Saturday, June 18th
Place: Das Cafe, 119 W. Main St., Urbana
Time: 3:00–5:00 p.m.

Storytelling Open Mikes occur on a Saturday afternoon each month at 3:00 p.m. You can find the Saturday of the next Open Mike by finding Speak! on Facebook or e-mailing Hal Southern.

At our Open Mikes we encourage people to bring a variety of tales: traditional world folktales, personal narratives, ghost stories, dark tales, comedy, and emotional stories. Perhaps you would like to share a story about something that recently happened to you.

Das Cafe has coffee, beer, food, and pastries.

Free Admission.
Hosted By Hal Southern and Ben Matheson.
