We have overnight accommodations for visiting artists – check with Carmen for availability. 

If you want to do some stand up, read something you’ve written or discuss creative process let Carmen know and we’ll get you on the air. The room is small and I’ll mic the audience, so you can attend just to watch and still be a part of the show.
