Join us for a family-friendly Open Mic Night at Devonshire Theater on Sunday, May 31 from 3:00–5:00 PM, where voices of all ages come together to share powerful stories of bravery and healing. This special event, “I Am Brave and Unafraid,” is a celebration of resilience—featuring heartfelt moments, inspiring journeys, and the strength found in community.

This event also supports the children of Kibbutz Shlomit in Israel through the I Am Brave and Unafraid Book Project, helping amplify their voices and stories of courage.
