Open Mic

Headwaters Open Mic & Coffee House is a welcoming, supportive community for local musicians, singers and spoken-word performers. All ages and skill levels are encouraged to sign up for a 10-minute or 2-song set. Taking place on the first Fridays of the month at 7:00pm, September through June, this fun, family-friendly event offers a relaxed environment for folks to listen and perform. Coffee and treats are sold by Apple Blossom Village during the evening.

How does it work? Open Mic is a volunteer-led community event. Performers can sign up in advance by sending an email to volunteer coordinator John Henningsgaard - jjhgaard@gmail.com. Performers can also sign up in-person beginning at 6:30pm on the night of the show.

Admission is $4 per person, or $10 per family. Each Open Mic night is led by a volunteer Emcee, volunteers collect admissions at the door, and volunteers help set-up and tear down the performance hall. A core group of volunteers works throughout the year to secure featured performers and assure we have sufficient equipment and supplies.

If you'd like to get involved in Open Mic by serving as host/emcee, staffing the door, setting up/tearing down or running sound, just give us a call at 218-444-5606 or contact John at the email above.
