Full Moon Open Mic with David Roth

January 15, 2025 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Join David Roth as we welcome year #19 of the “Full Moon Open Mic” – here at the Center for the Spiritual Journey! We’ll gather to sing, speak, regale, and reaffirm the beauty of organic and authentic community talent.

Sign up opens at 6:30pm.

The Full Moon Open Mic (FMOM) began on December 21st, 2005 at the Eldia Market and Coffeehouse in Orleans. David Roth wanted to offer a forum for local musicians, poets, storytellers, and artists where each would have an opportunity to be heard in a respectful and attentive environment. The FMOM is now in it’s 19th year, and though the event is absolutely free, a voluntary donation bucket is put out for a local non-profit every time. As a result of this we’ve received nearly $17,000 for more than 50 organizations over the years, and we’re thrilled to come to Chatham to continue our journey! www.davidrothmusic.com

This time we’ll send our collection off-Cape to help feed people in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and parts elsewhere,
via the World Central Kitchen. Check out the website of this amazing 501c3 non-profit org: https://wck.org/

What does anyone think of pot luck snacks/beverages at 6:30 that evening? A little more time to socialize and visit before we take in all the beauty…if you come early and can bring a little something to share, awesome. Otherwise, 7 PM it is!
