Tuesday Night Cafe is our flagship free public arts and performance series. Launched in 1999, TNC has since become one of the longest-running free arts series in Downtown LA and is the oldest Asian American mic series in the country.
Tuesday Night Cafe maintains a passionate, positive space with a focus on bridging art+community through new original work from Asian American/Pacific Islander communities and the greater Los Angeles area. The series runs on the 1st & 3rd Tuesday of each month, April through October, and features a curated program of multidisciplinary visual and performing art as well as an open mic section.
