Hillyer Open Mic Events occur on the third Friday of every month and feature a stunning array of the District’s poetic talent. Feature poets specialize in a variety of styles and take the audience for a personal journey into their work. Host Fred Joiner delves even deeper in his post-performance interview with feature performers, engaging them to illuminate their personal histories, influences, and perspectives to encourage heightened discourse and to somewhat unveil the mystery behind the words.

Hillyer is recognized as a safe-space for the art community and the HOME serves as a forum for open discussion on a diverse range of issues affecting the artists in our community. All our welcome to come and share their experience!
