Summer Spotlight

OPEN MIC

A fundraiser for arts programming in our community and a celebration of the artists, performers, storytellers, and dreamers who make our region such a vibrant place to call home! From music and poetry to comedy, spoken word, storytelling, and everything in between, we invite performers of all ages and experience levels to share their talents on our outdoor stage.

Whether you're performing or simply enjoying the show, you'll discover the incredible talent and creativity that lives right here in our community. Bring a lawn chair, gather with friends, neighbours and guests and enjoy a summer evening filled with surprises, laughter, inspiration, and connection.

Performers register in advance with a $10 registration fee, supporting the Slocan Lake Arts Council and helping us create a performance schedule for the evening. Audience members are encouraged to attend by donation, and donate generously, as all funds raised go directly towards future artistic programming in our community!

Lena Rich

with guests, Freya

Lena Rich writes songs that stay with you, through a picture, a melody, or a feeling. With an inviting, earthy, and ethereal sound, Lena’s songwriting reflects the layers of her influence. Growing up on the rugged coast of Maine, and now calling Livingston, Montana home, Lena’s music touches on the beauty of the natural world, the depth of human connection, and the magic of moments that stick. She released her album, King Tide, in October 2025 and her next album, produced by Mike LoPinto (Emily Nenni, The Montvales, Valley Flower) comes out this fall. Lena has shared bills with top americana acts The Local Honeys, Bob Sumner, Oliver Hazard, The Cody Sisters, and Anais Mitchell and played festivals such as Red Ants Pants, Ossipee Valley, Red Lodge Summer fest, and more.

Performing with Jon DeGroot, the duo plays Lena’s original songs with warm harmonies and beautiful guitar work.
