Event Information
About this event
UPDATE: WE ARE STILL ON FOR 6PM TODAY, RAIN OR SHINE. EVENT WILL MOVE INTO THE LARGE WAREHOUSE GALLERY SPACE ADJACENT TO THE PARKING LOT, STILL AT 5-25 46TH AVE.
Queens isn't back – Queens never left. Join us for a return to IRL community gathering on Wednesday, June 9 at the Culture Lab parking lot in LIC. All are welcome to our celebration of the future of Queens and NYC: technologists, creatives, entrepreneurs, investors, students, and other friends and neighbors.
We'll feature an exciting keynote conversation with two of the city's top leaders, representing the tech industry and the public sector, about how our community dealt with the challenges of the past year and how they are charting a path forward into a post-pandemic future – including a post-NYC-election future. We're also thrilled to be joined with experiential tables from some of the most incredible organizations in our city, as well as some delicious food and drink vendors.
