Take the mic
The Mattapoisett Museum will host an open mic night from 6 to 8 p.m. This open mic is open to the public, is “radically inclusive,” and is not restricted by age or performance genre.

Participants can sing a song, play a tune, recite a poem, do an interpretive dance, put on a dramatic short, do a magic trick, tell a story, or put on any other number of artistic performances.
