**Global harmony is our mission. World peace is our vision**. Our community's international open mic event attracts 100+ musicians and thousands of listeners each week. Our virtual song circle reaches globally, while upholding the classic pattern of a traditional open mic event. At the end of each week, we celebrate the songs with a showcase, much like a live music concert.

Everyone is welcome here in our haven for creative expression and genuine connection. We welcome music fans and casual listeners, while holding space for musicians of every style and any skill level. Here, music lovers build real relationships worldwide. Every contributor can be proud of the fact we are creating a harmonious world, by sharing the enjoyment of music. 

For the 104th week of Hive Open Mic, we will explore the following theme: "Guitarra Automática." In English, this means: "Automatic Guitar," making reference to the weapons of destruction and transmuting them into tools of creation, like a war made peaceful through music. This theme is selected by @alejandrorigo, who is a rad guitarist and singer-songwriter from Venezuela. Everyone is encouraged to share the collective current as we express and connect through: Guitarra Automática.

#### <center>Requests</center>

**Show support by engaging with the musicians.** The greatest gift we can give to an artist is our attention. For this reason, we humbly ask that everyone offer some friendly words. Reward musicians by offering applause as if we're in a pub, a coffee shop, or concert hall. Our comments might be the vital voice that gives a musician the wings to fly, or the gills to dive deep!
