Virtual Community Guidelines

This is a space in which people use their artistry to cultivate spaces where our common humanity is affirmed. A lot of people attend and share at these events because they know that this will be a group of supportive people encouraging artistic expression across disciplines, experiences, and styles. In order to maintain this environment that supports our artists, we ask all participants and attendees agree to our community guidelines:

1. NO racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, transphobic, or hateful speech, images or gestures of any kind will be tolerated.

2. We encourage attendees to react and be present with the artists that are presenting, however please be mindful of any ambient or disruptive noise that may disrupt the performance. Please silence the alerts on your PC or close Outlook altogether. Chimes, dings, chirps, beeps and toots may disrupt performances.

3. No recording or photography (screen capture) of any kind without explicit permission of artists prior to their performance. NYTW/Poetic will be recording this Open Mic Night. By registering to perform and/or attending this event, you are giving permission to be recorded.

4. We reserve the right to remove anyone from the virtual room who does not abide by these stated guidelines and may cause harm to other participants and attendees.

5. Be positive and encourage others to create a community, love, compassion, and acceptance.
