Therefore, buying member level tickets for friends is not included, even if you obtain a membership.

When checking in at the door, be prepared to share your table and seat number.

 It is our policy not to refund tickets if someone is unable to attend; nor will we transfer tickets to another event for the same reason. We will offer full refunds if the event is cancelled or if the contents of an event changed, for example, if the scheduled feature poet/band cancels.

Water and pop for $1.00 is offered at the bar. Attendees may bring their own food and drink or bring in food and drink from the Rhythm Kitchen.
