the Café Gallery at Gallery Cabaret

Archive listing of the Café Gallery podcast (2010-2015)

    The podcast for this open mic ran from 2010 through 2015, and most of the podcast videos were also released as YouTube videos as well. The podcast videos are no longer available here, but this listing will provide you with information about when podcast videos were available for free downloads.
    Because there are years of poetry performances in this collections, you can jump to the year on this long page by clicking no the year below.

    This is the only known Chicago poetry/performance art/music open mic that ran video recordings of open mics and features as not only YouTube video clips, but also as weekly podcast videos. (Upon investigation, we found that on average a podcast video was downloaded once every 45 minutes 24/7.)

    the Café Gallery is a regular open mic and a regular feature show, that starting in 2012 is hosted at Gallery Cabaret (2020 N. Oakley Ave. in Chicago, IL), and from 2003-2011 was at the Café (5115 North Lincoln Ave., just south of Foster, in Chicago, IL).
    Past performance art and poetry shows (that were recorded before the weekly podcast from the Café began) have been added to the Café Gallery podcast.
    We also have in this listing some introductions to the Cafe saved as mp4 files, which were not used in the podcast listing. So enjoy this expanded master list of podcasts and mp4 files!
