Long-time reader Andy Travis is our feature for Poets Out Loud open mic in June! Join us in the cafe of the Tweed Regional Gallery, for great food, awesome poetry, and good vibes. We’ll close the doors and crank the heaters for this winter word-warming!

The mic is open for YOU to share an original spoken-word piece. Bring along 1 item (2-3 minutes long is best) and sign up to the open mic list from 6pm.

If you’re dining with us, please book your table at gallerybybacaro.com

Please note that this is a very popular event and Covid restrictions apply. You’re very welcome to attend without booking, and we’ll do our best to seat you where available.

Andy Travis was a community radio announcer for 13 years, most recently, he co-founded ‘The Men’s Show’ on Bay FM in Byron Shire. An avid public speaker, he’s tried his hand at acting and stand-up comedy. But it was when he discovered spoken-word poetry two years ago, that he really found his passion.
