Description

Fish Out of Water: Ethnography Open Mic invites anthropologists and the wider curious public to share the moments when fieldwork, everyday life, and imagination collide. This open mic celebrates storytelling, poetry, and creative approaches to ethnography that emerge from encounters across distance and difference—tender, awkward, and unsettling alike. Seasoned researchers, students, and community members are welcome to take the stage or simply listen, to experiment with how ethnography can sound when it slips out of the notebook and into the room. Come for an evening of voices that make the familiar strange and the strange feel a little more like home.
