The Art Meetup: First Open Mic of the Summer
Live music, open mic, creative community, drinks, conversation, and the easiest way to meet new people in NYC this summer. Limited space.
If you only read one thing, read this. This is one of the most welcoming NYC open mic events in the city.
Live music, poetry, artists, and a creative community that actually talks to each other. Some of the next stars in New York will be in the room. If you want to meet people, share your work, or just be around good energy, you should be here.
Saturday June 6 from 3 PM to 7 PM Doors open at 2 PM • Chelsea Manhattan
A lot of people come alone. Most leave knowing somebody.
Why this night matters
This is more than an open mic. It is a space where strangers become collaborators, where artists discover each other, and where the room feels alive. Last time people stayed long after the performances ended. Instagrams were exchanged. Group chats were created. Plans were made. It felt like the kind of New York people say does not exist anymore.
What you will find
- Live music and open mic performances
- Poetry, storytelling, and spoken word
- Artists and creatives from across NYC
- Free crafts including bracelets, beaded jewelry, bookmarks
- A relaxed, friendly atmosphere where people actually talk
- Space to bring your sketchbook, journal, crochet, or works in progress
