Santa Cruz Food Lounge (Santa Cruz Arts Center)

A page on santacruz.com lists this night, but may not be current.

As of Sep 1, 2026, the Venue's Website remains a thin page with no mention of 'open mic,' 'Thursday,' or 'third' -- too thin to mean much either way. A regional open-mic guide says this venue hosts Open Mic Night on the third Thursday of the month [s1]. A business-directory listing describes the venue only generically, as an event space, with no date-specific detail. No new dated evidence was found for or against.
