Silver Tongued Deviance is a monthly open mic platform event hosted by spoken word artist Frank Rafferty on the last Thursday of every month in Void Gallery.
During these sessions, spoken word performers/singers/(acoustic) musicians are invited to come along and perform; they may choose any pieces of work from their repertoire, they can create something new which connects to themes in Void’s current exhibition, or they can perform something else entirely which simply resonates with them.
The viewing public are invited to simply attend and enjoy! There is no requirement to perform at these events.
Refreshments are also provided; visitors are invited to enjoy a glass of wine, a beer, or some tea or coffee.
Void is wheelchair accessible.
This is a drop-in event so no booking is necessary – however in order for us to prepare for the event we ask you to kindly RSVP here.
Upcoming Silver Tongued Deviance session dates are as follows:
- Thursday 26th January 6:45pm
- Thursday 23rd February 6:45pm
