Free tea & music for all!
Steeped in Sound is an event series featuring a curated lineup of DJs, vendors, meditation, and free tea! We (The Tea Stand) co-host the event with LEEWAY, a local musician.
We host Steeped in Sound on Sunday afternoons on a seasonal basis (4x per year). We switch between indoors and outdoors depending on time of year.
Steeped in Sound events are announced via our Instagram (here) and monthly newsletter (here). You can also view our calendar here.
We host Steeped in Sound to create a space for creative expression and connection. Many events in NYC involve alcohol, spending money, and music that's too loud for meaningful conversation.
Steeped in Sound is our response to this â a Sunday afternoon event focused on community, collaboration, and free tea and music for all!
