We’ve been having an absolute blast at our new venue for Open Mic Napa. There’s nothing better than gathering the community every week to share entertainment, connect, and just vibe together. So many new faces and visitors showing up, it’s been amazing to watch. Huge thank you to Rebel for hosting us, and to every single person who comes through and makes these nights special. What a wholesome little community we’ve built here in Napa. Much love. See you Monday. 🎤✨

Meet the Hosts! ✨For this week’s Spotlight Sunday, I wanted to take a moment to properly introduce myself and my co-host and creative partner, Skyla Rayne.

I started this open mic one year ago after moving from San Francisco to Napa, hoping to recreate the inspiring energy of the open mics I loved attending in the city. I’ve always been deeply passionate about the arts and creative expression. I began piano lessons and joined choir at 5 years old and those early experiences became the foundation for my love of music and self-expression. In 8th grade, an English class introduced me to poetry and writing, which further ignited my passion for the arts.

Beyond creativity, I’m also deeply passionate about building community. In today’s world, I believe it’s more important than ever to stay connected with the people around us.

It was at Barnhouse that I first met Skyla Rayne, a truly talented singer with an undeniable passion for music and community. Our collaboration happened naturally because I saw the same fire in her that I felt for this open mic. In the early days, when turnout was low and things felt discouraging, Skyla was always there encouraging me and bringing positivity. We quickly became a team, and together we continue to grow this open mic. (Fun fact: Skyla is also an English teacher!!)

What began as a monthly event at Barnhouse quickly became weekly due to the incredible response. Today, it has grown into a vibrant community where locals and artists come together to share their work, perform, and connect. It’s become a beautiful outlet for creative expression, performance, and entertainment.

We’re so grateful to everyone who has shown up, performed, and supported us along the way. Here’s to another year of music, poetry, and community! 🎤❤️ #napaevents #napamusic #napaopenmic #openmic #napavalley taken in Napa, California by @erin4d

Every Monday from 6–9 PM, Open Mic at Barnhouse becomes a space for expression, creativity, and connection.

Artists, creatives, and everyday people are welcome to take the mic and share their voice—whether through poetry, music, comedy, storytelling, or spoken truth.

This is a relaxed, welcoming space for artists and audiences alike.

If you’ve been looking for a place to share, listen, or simply feel connected—this is it.
