Hatched by @buchheistertheresa in 2014 and co-curated by @antociantoci & @jillianjetton, this quarterly affair brings together artists, comedians, chefs, scientists, theologians – anyone with something to share in a DIY, low-stakes setting – in one delightfully unpredictable night. Presenters are asked to share something *at the edge* of their practice, and the resulting mixed-bill of micro-acts coalesces (loosely) around a theme.
Follow us here or sign up for our mailing list (link up top) to stay in the loop for future events. And if you want to get involved in future SalOn!s there’s a form for that too!

Hatched by @buchheistertheresa in 2014 and co-curated by @antociantoci & @jillianjetton, this quarterly affair brings together artists, comedians, chefs, scientists, theologians – anyone with something to share in a DIY, low-stakes setting – in one delightfully unpredictable night. Presenters are asked to share something *at the edge* of their practice, and the resulting mixed-bill of micro-acts coalesces (loosely) around a theme.
Follow us here or sign up for our mailing list (link up top) to stay in the loop for future events. And if you want to get involved in future SalOn!s there’s a form for that too!

It’s that time again…. The @exponentialfestival SalOn! will pass for one night only through Mercury Store on Saturday February 7th for “a night of process.” The theme is RETRO/GRADE, as in: reverse/return/decay, Mercury in _____, level, assess … or??? Join us Saturday February 7th to find out.

Hatched by @buchheistertheresa in 2014 and co-curated by @antociantoci & @jillianjetton, this quarterly affair brings together artists, comedians, chefs, scientists, theologians – anyone with something to share in a DIY, low-stakes setting – in one delightfully unpredictable night. Presenters are asked to share something *at the edge* of their practice, and the resulting mixed-bill of micro-acts coalesces (loosely) around a theme.

Wow wow wow our first SalOn! at the new @come.to.life.world was so fun! Thanks to all who took the plunge and shared something at the edge of their practice… and to all who cheered them on. Much soap, much opera, much delight. Turns out feasting on failure makes for a damn good meal.
We were so engrossed in @sirnoraschell’s show-stopping final act that we didn’t get any pictures, you’ll just have to take our word that it was fabulous.

Hatched by @buchheistertheresa in 2014 and co-curated by @antociantoci & @jillianjetton, this quarterly affair brings together artists, comedians, chefs, scientists, theologians – anyone with something to share in a DIY, low-stakes setting – in one delightfully unpredictable night. Presenters are asked to share something *at the edge* of their practice, and the resulting mixed-bill of micro-acts coalesces (loosely) around a theme…
This season that theme is (SOAP) OPERA – think high/low, clean/dirty, over the top/under the grime… or??? Join us Saturday June 7th to find out.
Follow us here or sign up for our mailing list (link up top) to stay in the loop for future events. And if you want to get involved in future SalOn!s there’s a form for that too!

SalOn! is on the move! Usually found bursting the seams of Brick Aux, we’re tickled to be setting up (temporary) shop at the new @come.to.life.world venue in Bushwick.
