West Art Open Mics

Looking to get some experience playing your music in front of a supportive, listening audience? Are you interested in meeting other local musicians and listening to their hand-crafted songs? If so, come out to West Art's open mic nights!

1st and 3rd Wednesday from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm - Acoustic Open Mic with local songwriter Andrew Pauls.

This open mic will take place in the Coffee Bar and is focused on acoustic music (i.e., no drum kit or amps). West Art will provide up to three inputs for your instrument and voice. Original songs are encouraged, but cover songs are always welcome! Each performer will have enough time to play 2-3 songs (10-15 minutes). Sign-ups at 6:30 pm!

2nd and 4th Wednesday from 7:00 - 9:00 pm - BLAST OFF Open Mic with Emily Siegrist.

Emily Siegrist has been hosting open mics known as BLAST OFF in different locations in Lancaster City since 2013, aiming to build confidence and motivation for local musicians, rappers, poets, and comedians to reach their goals in the performing arts. This open mic is located in The Elbow Room (Basement) and takes place every 2nd and 4th Wednesday. Doors and signups are at 7 pm!

If you come to play, come to listen! Be prepared to be an attentive audience member and support the other performers.
