Wondering how many of you have a Make Music Alliance Chapter in your city? Fortunately, Cinncinnati is one of the larger allied sponsor cities.
On June 21st of each year here in the Cincinnati area, we have venues all over the city and its bordering neighborhoods & townships that become available for public performance bookings on that day. All the venues are listed by districts around the city, and details on what is available at the venue are listed.
If you've never heard of it, here's a link to the general website: https://www.makemusicday.org/
Any city sponsoring an allied chapter will also have a link that you can follow to allied city websites
Once you find a venue that you are interested in performing at on June 21st -and which meets your needs for electric power, stage equipment ( of course you can bring your own setup ), etc. - there is a performers registration process to complete, and then a separate process to request a time slot of your choosing directly from the venue in question. After your request is reviewed and approved by the local entity in charge of it, you are scheduled for that slot on Make Music day. The booking process is free.
Lots of resources to promote your performance available. Here's one of the posters for mine from their poster generator, with some Guild content :
