An evening where spoken word poetry meets a smooth live band. Guests can take the open mic stage or simply enjoy the performances, with the atmosphere carrying on afterwards to RnB, hip hop and garage sounds from one of London's well-regarded DJs.

Painting is part of the night: extra painting tickets can be bought alongside the main ticket, and they include a seat, art supplies and a canvas. The venue also serves food and cocktails.
