Silver Spring Town Center, Inc.will present its free “Autumn Arts Salon: Bring the Noisemakers” from 5:30-7 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 9, at the Koiner Farm in Downtown Silver Spring. Poet Brenda Bunting will be the host.

The Koiner Farm is located at 737 Easley St. in Silver Spring. To RSVP for the event, contact Silver Spring Town Center, Inc., at lisa@silverspringtowncenter.com

The salon will be an opportunity to “Bring your voice, your song, your talking drum, your whistle, your harmonica, your hand clamping foot stomping beautiful sounds of purpose, of passion, of protest or of pain.” Artistry in quick rounds of expression will be provided by attendees.

The Arts Salon is geared toward those along the creative spectrum, including artists, writers, filmmakers, musicians and poets. Fiber artists, costume designers, poets, songwriters, photographers, visual artists, filmmakers, tailors, musicians and other multimedia artists are all welcome.

The salon normally features a performance-oriented show-and-tell format, a kind of "open mic" for artists of all disciplines based around the theme of collaboration. Artists are encouraged to bring samples of their work to share.
