'Open Mic Night' - 26 Oct 2024
The Meeting Place hosted an Open Mic Night drawing in locals who performed or simply enjoyed the atmosphere. We were entertained with singing, duets, dance, music, reading of poetry, community singing, and a skit. All this while sipping homemade non-alcoholic mulled wine and chai and eating delicious cakes in an ambient setting. What more could you ask for!
Donations were collected on the night to raise funds for the Save the Children Gaza Emergency Appeal. Thank you to all who donated the $675.
