Ruusu Open Mic #48

Ruusu open mic is back! We warmly welcome you to come enjoy poetry and other forms of literary art to Restaurant Sörkan Ruusu on 24.9.2023, at 17-20.

This time we have two talented warm-up poets: Riikka Simpura and Heidi Toivanen.

After the two incredible performances the stage is yours: once again it’s time for open mic!

You can sign up for the open mic after the performances. You’re welcome to perform your text, song or other performance in any language you wish. It’s possible to connect your instrument or phone etc in the sound system, if that’s what your performance needs. Time limit for every open mic performance is 4 minutes, so everyone has a chance to perform.

This event is produced and hosted by Katja Korhonen and Natalia Karjalainen. Poster is designed by Sade Korkka.
We thank our long lasting partner Restaurant Sörkan Ruusu with joy!
