The Art Meetup NYC Open Mic & Mixer at Lincoln Center

NYC artists and creatives, this is your moment to be seen, heard, and take the stage in one of the city’s most iconic cultural spaces.

Join The Art Meetup for a NYC open mic at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, located in Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, where performance, storytelling, and creative expression come together in a space rooted in history and legacy. This is your opportunity to share your work, connect with other artists, and be part of a real creative community in New York City.

This event is designed for artists, performers, musicians, poets, and creatives looking to step into visibility, build confidence, and meet others who are also creating and growing in NYC.

This is not about perfection. It is about showing up, being present, and taking up space.
