Collide Zine Turns 4: Issue 13 Release Party + Open Mic

Join us for an unforgettable evening at our second home, Tattooed Mom, as we celebrate two major milestones: Collide Zine’s 4th birthday and the release of our 13th edition!

For four years, Collide Zine has been dedicated to uplifting local artists, poets, writers, and community members through creative collaboration and grassroots storytelling. This celebration is our way of honoring the incredible community that has made it all possible.

The night will feature:

A Vendor Village showcasing local artists, makers, and small businesses in the front room of the bar

A Live Painter creating artwork in real time throughout the evening

Two Featured Poets sharing powerful original work to open the night

A Two-Hour Open Mic in the upstairs back room, welcoming poets, storytellers, musicians, comedians, and creatives of all kinds

Fresh Copies of Collide Zine Issue 13 available for purchase

Whether you’ve been with us since Issue 1 or you’re discovering Collide for the first time, this event is a chance to connect with other aritts, support locally made products and business owners, and celebrate the vibrant community that continues to grow around this little zine of ours!

All experience levels are welcome at the open mic. Bring a poem, a song, a story, or simply come to listen and enjoy the magic of a room full of creative expression.
