Writers, visual artists, musicians, textile artists, filmmakers, photographers, people who fall outside strict categories but have been making art for a couple years—if you've been wanting to meet other artists, especially outside your discipline, come and share your work! Bring something short to show/read/play/work on, your listening skills for four to five artists' work, and ideas about what this space can do for all of us. We'll have a laptop and projector. 

Niv Sekar and Bailey Quinlan will be hosting. 

Please RSVP here to let us know you’re coming!

Join us for a morning of yoga with your little one! Grown ups will be guided through postures that will support building strength and releasing tension in the body as you care for your babe.

Sliding scale $20-35, and all proceeds will go to Without Borders School in Gaza. Register here!

In this workshop, cast members from the upcoming variety show, Bitter Ambrosia, will give personalized guidance as you learn new choreography created specifically for this class. They will teach you how to move a hoop as an extension of your body and how to add emotion and character to your movement.

The workshop is followed by a preview of the hoop acts featured in Bitter Ambrosia, a queer retelling of the Garden of Eden. This show chronicles the origins of the Snake, a fallen angel who journeys through Hell, making revelations about sin, piety, and gender expression at each layer. This rendition subverts the traditional narrative into one of queer acceptance and trans joy.

After the show, stick around for an open jam for flow artists where you can practice your skills and build community with fellow performers. This event is excellent for performers who want to strengthen their stage presence, flow artists who are looking to enhance their fluidity, and anyone who wants to learn hoop choreography from a professional.

Entry is sliding scale $15-25 ~ reserve your spot HERE!

Whether you're a sake newbie or a seasoned pro, this Sake 101 class is the perfect opportunity to dive deep into the history, brewing process, and tasting techniques of this versatile and storied beverage. 

While the staff of Kings County Wines are sake enthusiasts, we decided to bring in a certified sake expert to lead this class.

He started his career behind the sushi bar working his way up to sushi assistant/beverage director at renowned NYC omakase restaurant, New York Sushi Ko. Today, he's the Regional Manager for the Northeast and North Central U.S. for Joto Sake, one of the top premium sake importers.

Together we'll explore a thoughtfully curated sake flight featuring a variety of styles, learn the art of savoring each sip, and uncover a wide range of unexpected food pairings! $30 to register, which you can do HERE!

Join us for a night of live music featuring two incredible sets: Jamile, followed by the Kayla Williams Trio. Doors at 7:30, sets at 8:00 and 9:00. $20 suggested donation all goes to the musicians.

About the artists…

Born and raised in Brazil, but thriving in New York, Jamile's artistry includes a love of language, a closeness with genre, a deep feeling for style—and a demand to throw all of these aside for the pleasures of transcendence. Jamile specifically loves mixing modern jazz and Brazilian jazz, as well as her original compositions.

The Kayla Williams Trio explores a multidisciplinary approach to contemporary music. The ensemble strives to bridge the gaps between classical, jazz, folk, and roots music bringing each of these musical communities into conversation and collaboration.
