Virtual Open Mic + June Round Up

Virtual Open Mic + June Round Up

Its a Pride summer so we are not stopping our pride celebrations!!

We are hosting a Pride Event this Saturday!! Queer artists including Olólùfé Collective contributors will be in attendance and sharing their art.

Our Virtual Open Mic Saturday 5th July 7pm (UTC+ 1) is our first ever Pride event and having our first supporters there would mean so much to us.

If you are an artist and would like to share your art before the event you are welcome to do so. Sharing on the night is also highly encouraged and welcome.

Pride is about resistance, queerness and undermining the status quo and we hope you carry that spirit for the rest of 2025. We must all do what we can where we are, and it could be as simple as wearing a mask in public spaces.
