DESCRIPTION:QUEER OPEN MIC prepares for the holiday season with a lighter schedule. For 
 November and December, QUEER OPEN MIC will happen only on the second Friday 
 of the month!  On November 12th  we will feature the fierce words of Kirk 
 Read.. Kirk Read is the author of "How I Learned to Snap" and hosts lots of 
 literary and performance events, including the open mic Smack Dab on third 
 Wednesdays at Magnet. He is a harm reduction counselor and volunteer 
 coordinator at St. James Infirmary, a free health care clinic for sex 
 workers. He can be found at kirkread.com  Why a Queer Open Mic on a Friday 
 night?  Because the queers will not be silenced, because sharing art is a 
 revolutionary act, because coming together to kick some serious literary 
 a** is unbelievably fun, because your voice and your experience is unique 
 and needs to be heard, for these reasons and more come on over to a 
 friendly and fabulous open mic for the entire queer community! Let's create 
 a space for spoken word, poetry and performance that is multi cultural, 
 multi gendered, completely inclusive and dynamic.  Scheduled upcoming 
 featured readers include: Michelle Tea (12/10), Wendy-O-Matik (1/14),  Suzy 
 La Follette (2/11) and Angie Krass (2/25)  SPECIFIC EVENT DETAILS:  QUEER 
 OPEN MIC (usually)happens on the 2nd and 4th Fridays of every month at the 
 THREE DOLLAR BILL CAFÉ on the first floor of the SF LGBT COMMUNITY CENTER 
 at 1800 Market @ Octavia in SF and is hosted by Cindy M. Emch.   Open Mic 
 sign up begins at 7:30, readings start at 8pm. Anyone with special needs 
 should contact the host the night of the event for any specific 
 accommodations. $1-5 donations benefit the performers and The Center 
 (http://www.sfcenter.org) in an effort to encourage more queer art in our 
 community. No one turned away for lack of funds. (Open mic readers get 5 
 minutes, one poem or 3 pages of prose, whichever fits the material best)
