Moon Pixel Open-Mic

Wow! January is gone and half of February is almost over. I settled in my new home in Oceanside, CA at the end of January. It’s so pleasant here. Our family housing community is wonderful to us. It feels so nice to be able to enjoy movie nights, Ladies Potluck Bingo, and other housing events with our neighbors.

I finally am slowly working on reshaping my favorite passion, which is bringing community together. Moon Pixel “Open-Mic” is postponed for awhile.

I am planning on branching out Moon Pixel Collective into something spectacular this 2017 year. Visit the upcoming new site here.  It’ll give you insight on what is to come.

Elmast Kozloyan is running a new open-mic series now at Half Off Books, CA called Inside The Lantern. It is every first Friday of the month. Inside The Lantern is the replacement for Moon Pixel Open-Mic. I’m not sure when I’ll be back in Whittier, CA as a resident again. If it ever does become my residence in the future I wouldn’t mind coming back and hosting for you Pixies.

I started a GoFundMe Campaign to help me flourish the vision I have for Moon Pixel Collective. It might take a while! That’s okay. Regardless of the time it takes I am organizing everything to start community here. If you’d like to see the progress of my campaign, or donate whatever contribution you’d like just click on the link above, or below. I’d appreciate any motivation or financial support.

Seriously, e-mail me from time to time asking how my lesson planning is going, or what my thoughts, and hopes are with this project! I’d love to have someone I can check up with on my progress. Positive reinforcement is a wonderful thing!

I hope you are all doing well. I miss some of you very much. I am thankful that last weekend Sarah Thursday visited me. We had some lovely girl time together. It was great!

Have a blessed weekend.

Sincerely,

Raquel

Dear magical moon pixies,

I apologize for not hosting a Moon Pixel Open-Mic on September 30th. My mother fell ill and was hospitalized. She’s recovering now. Prayers, positive thoughts, moon dust blessings are welcomed right now. They are appreciated. Moon Pixel will return on October 28th, 2016 at Half Off Books. We plan on starting at 7PM; sign up sheet will go up no later than 6:30. Musicians are ALWAYS welcomed but acoustic only no plug-ins. I hope October blesses you all with a gentle embrace and see you soon.

xo,

Moon Pixel Open-Mic will be back at Half Off Books in Whittier, CA. This Friday January 29th, 2016 join us as we celebrate our one year anniversary with you. Sign-up list goes up no later than 6:30 P.M. and closes when all the moon beam magic begins at 7. Moon Pixel gives everyone the equal opportunity to perform for 3-5 minutes. We welcome acoustic musicians, comedians, poets, magicians, story-tellers, and all. For a year Moon Pixel has been striving to create a safe and healthy local artistic community where people can inspire, support, and respect one another.

This month’s feature for Moon Pixel Open-Mic will be Terry Wright.
