An Intimate Evening of Love Poems, Live Music, and Open Mic.
After two successful events last year, this summer feels like the perfect time to bring this one back! We're setting a romantic and intimate vibe at the beautiful Aretha's Jazz Café, located inside of Detroit's historic Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts.
Hosted by Joel Fluent Greene
The evening will feature:
An all-star lineup of Poets bringing their most romantic, raw, and honest work to the stage.
Live Music by Evening Star Trio
Special Guest Performers
Complimentery drinks served in the Music Hall lobby from 7 - 8 PM
And Open Mic (yes, you can perform)
DETROIT! This is the romantic evening of words and music you've been waiting for! You won't want to hear about it, you'll want to be in the building. Come get COMFY with us and join the best audience in the city!
