PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU SIGN UP TO PERFORM:
1) Clarion’s Music Open Mic and Talent Show entertains a specific audience that enjoys pop and classical songs and music, a little humor, and dances like hula and jazz. While we welcome artists of other genres, the host has the authority to “gong” down any inappropriate act for the audience; therefore, please prepare clean versions of your act.
2) Starting August 2025, the Performance fee to Open Mic on the website is $5.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.Bay Area soulful singer Khalia returns to Clarion Performing Arts Center as the monthly open mic host — a full-circle moment at the very space where her music journey began. As the first open mic she ever attended, Clarion helped shape Khalia into the artist she is today. With a focus on connection, encouragement, and community, she’s excited to help spotlight local musicians and continue cultivating an inclusive, uplifting space for artists of all levels.
The event will be live-streamed on our YouTube Channel.
Bring your music and put on your dancing shoes! It's time to share your talents with a group of friends!
No-judgement, supportive environment, but keep it family-friendly.
Always with complimentary tea and snacks :)
