A new edition of A Mic of One’s Own, a series of collaborations between Kunstinstituut Melly and The Writer’s Guide (to the Galaxy)!

As always the theme of this edition is inspired by a current exhibition at Kunstinstituut Melly. This edition relates to the group exhibition titled My Oma, which focuses on the figure of the grandmother.

We are looking for writers, poets, spoken word artists or songwriters who want to share their thoughts about their grandmother. This can be your real grandmother, an adopted one, a spiritual one, it can be your great-great-great-great-(etc.)grandmother or maybe your cute elderly neighbour. Apply until November 24th by filling out the application form here. Do you just want to come and listen? Get your free ticket here.

With these sessions we aim to create a safe space for intimate stories to be shared. To ensure that, we expect all participants to respect each other’s privacy and vulnerability.

Time: 19:00 (doors: 18:30)
Location: Kunstinstituut Melly, Witte de Withstraat 50 Rotterdam
