How?

Taylor Maude Love leads a guided meditation to start the event.
LEEJAY curates a melodic lineup of local DJs (and spins a set himself).
Local vendors (e.g. ceramicists) offer activities and goods.
The Tea Stand serves free tea all event long!

Why?

To create a space for creative expression and connection. Many venues for meeting new people in NYC are centered around alcohol, require spending lots of money, and play music way too loudly for meaningful conversation.

Steeped in Sound is our response to this – an event focused on community, collaboration, and free tea and music for all!
