Speak Out Stage
The Speak Out Stage at Pride in the CLE® has historically been the space where we have a chance to hear from members in the community - activists, organizers, poets and artists alike. The goal of the stage is to get amped up, be moved, or move someone. It is definitely a high energy space, with the goal to captivate and inspire our audience with your passion, in whatever form that takes!
Performance slots are 5 minutes in length, if more time is needed please communicate that within the performance description. If chosen, we will do our best to accommodate. Applicants may be asked to provide a sample of your work. Applications closed April 15th, 2023 and performers will be notified no later than May 5th, 2023.
