Calling All Musicians & Music Lovers: Open Mic is Coming to Hammond! 🎤
Opening day is officially a week away & we are absolutely thrilled to announce that we are launching Open Mic for our Hammond market location, hosted by the incredibly talented local musician himself, Kwaician!
If you’ve heard Kwaician perform before, you already know he brings unmatched soulful energy, a deep love for the local music scene, and the perfect welcoming vibe to the stage. Now, he’s sharing that spotlight with you right during market hours to help us kick off this brand-new tradition!
Here is the schedule:
🚀 The Launch: The open mic officially debuts on Opening Day, Thursday, May 28th!
🗓️ The Routine: After opening day, the open mic will take place on the 3rd Thursday of every month for the rest of the season.
Want to share your talent?
Whether you are a seasoned singer-songwriter, a casual guitarist, a poet, or a hidden local talent, this is your stage. You can sign up live on location at the market, or secure your spot ahead of time by emailing [email protected]! 📧
The Music Doesn't Stop!
Keep the creative vibes rolling even after the market wraps up! Once our market open mic concludes, the music moves right across the street to Paul Henry's Art Gallery for their open mic experience. It’s a full evening dedicated to celebrating local art and music in downtown Hammond!
