Calling all local artists, performers and curious creatives, this is your invite to take the mic at The Nest!

Try It Out is an open, welcoming evening where artists of all disciplines can share up to five minutes of work-in-progress.

Whether it’s a brand-new poem, a stand-up idea, a song, a dance piece or something totally unexpected, this is your invitation to try it out. Seasoned performer or first timer, this is a space for testing, sharing, and connecting in a relaxed, supportive environment.

No pressure. No polish needed. Just creativity and a good time.
