DESCRIPTION:On December 10th we are proud to feature local rock star poet Michelle Tea. 
 Michelle has published the novels, "The Passionate Mistakes and Intricate 
 Corruption of One Girl in America”, "Valencia" and "The Chelsea Whistle". 
 Her work has been included in the forthcoming anthologies: "Women Who Eat" 
 "Punk Rock Porn", "Geeks, Misfits and Outlaws", "Coming Out of the Closet 
 Again", and "Night". She has most recently published an illustrated 
 (graphic) novel, "Rent Girl", with artist Laurenn McCubbin.  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: Wendy-O-Matik (1/14), Horehound 
 Stillpoint with Kate Alfieri (1/28) 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)  \n
