LOGAN SQUARE — Have a story to tell about your love life?

Head to popular nightlife spot, The Owl, 2521 N. Milwaukee Ave., for its new monthly storytelling event, "Kiss & Tell," from the feminist collective SlutTalk.

The theme of the first event, which is scheduled for 9:30 p.m. March 30, is "My First ____," meaning first kiss, relationship, etc.

The event, which is essentially a curated open mic night, will allow people to share personal stories about sex, dating and love, focusing on topics like slut shaming, body politics and sexual identity. Each event will be hosted by Alicia Swiz, feminist performer and City Colleges of Chicago professor.

SlutTalk is described as a "collective dialogue that seeks to destigmatize the word slut and encourage sex positivity through performances, workshops and social media."

For the event, the bar is offering drink specials, including half-off cocktails and beers, from 6-8 p.m., as well as $4 5 Rabbit drafts all evening. Beginning at 10 p.m., there will be a DJ set from $TAY GOLD & CTRL+Z.

There is no cover charge for the event.
