A monthly open stage for young artists, encouraging live music, improvisation, and collaboration.

Held on the first Saturday of the month, ARKA Open Mic Night offers any performer who signs up 7 minutes on stage. No pre-recorded backing tracks are allowed, encouraging young musicians and vocalists to collaborate to create their music. Improvisation is encouraged. The night is great training for musicians and singers and a fun opportunity for audiences to hear and meet area musicians. Open Mic Night has added significant energy to the Shkodra cultural scene.
