Join your host Megan J Riedl at TBH Studio for community, creativity, and the power of words at the closing celebration of the What Do You Have To Say group exhibition. Hosted by award-winning spoken word artist Megan J Riedl.

Showcasing her expert wordsmithery, Megan will deliver a set of spoken word poems, delivered in her powerful and compelling style. Megan's poetry explores themes of identity, belonging, truth and power, often highlighting issues of social justice. Her performance will also include the unveiling of new spoken word work based on the I Know What You Did This Summer community writing project that will run concurrently with What Do You Have To Say exhibition.

For the month of February, the What Do You Have To Say group exhibition at TBH Studio has given artists a platform to express their thoughts, ideas, and emotions through the powerful medium of text. Now it's the writers turn, with 15 five-minute open-mic spots up for grabs, you're invited to share original or favourite poems, short stories or songs to share on the mic at TBH Studio. Open-mic hopefuls are also welcome to join Megan at a workshop on 21 February to hone their poems.

Doors open from 6:00 PM for last-minute Open Mic sign-up.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
