Creative Voice

Creative Voice is open to any artform from singers, fiction writers, comedians, painters, photographers, graphic designers, stand up comedians, etc. Leticia caters to everyone individually and provides direction and assignments based on what you want to work on. The benefits to having different artforms in one class are to learn how we all create differently, as well as what artists from different walks have in common. Everyone gets a different challenge and we discuss what was hard or a struggle. We also focus on being able to make mistakes and see ourselves in a more positive light. This is something many artists struggle with regardless of their craft. We also learn about different kinds of feedback and how to "take what we need from what we get". Not all feedback is productive and some of it is actually destructive. We learn how to tell the difference between these. Anyone can give destructive feedback regardless of authority or experience. We also do silly exercises like experiencing being cheered at non-sensically or booed (with no negative comments). This helps us take in how audiences or feedback affects us and learn to work through it while becoming confident in our work. Contact for more info. To register, please complete this Google Form.

Out of the Box Open Mic

Meets various Friday evenings at 8pm EST on Zoom - For a link/exact dates, contact
Co-hosted by Pandora Scooter, ZZ Anything, and Desi

Out of the Box is an open-mic for all types of performers: poets, singers, comedians, tragedians, musicians, jugglers, etc. It’s held on various Fridays every three to four weeks at 8:00 to about 9:30 pm EST. Admission is by sliding scale suggested donation of $5 to $15 (whatever you can afford) via Venmo. How this Works: Folks email to sign up, or sign up on the list as they arrive on Zoom. Every effort is made to make sure everyone who signs up will be given time up on the mic to share. Priority is given to those who arrive earlier, but if there’s room, we’ll fit everyone in, if possible. The list closes at 8:15 pm or when it's full. Count on having around 6-9 minutes. If you have a performance that is more than 9 minutes, check in with either Desi or ZZ Anything and we’ll figure something out! Need more info? Email outoftheboxpride@gmail.com.
