NO MORE WORK DAY ☕️🛠️

Every Wednesday at No More Cafe
352 E. 13th St. Manhattan

A full day to work, draw, write, read, make things, meet people, or just exist somewhere really cool with others doing the same.

Artists are especially invited after 7PM through midnight. Bring sketchbooks, paints, pens, laptops, strange ideas, unfinished projects, whatever you’ve got.

Low pressure. Communal atmosphere.
Come make something

(Edit: yes I did make a post using AI art earlier today posting about it this event which happens weekly and the feedback is - “we don’t like ai art and won’t go if you use AI,” so I am trying this post as a test to see which one is a more effective post to have people actually come in person to these events.
We’ll see. I’ll monitor the metrics from the posts but honestly people arguing on Reddit gets more views than not but I’ll be at this tomorrow and next week to see which works out best)

Something special is building again at Awesome on Flatbush.

Join us for the next 77 event on Saturday, May 17th at 7PM for an evening of art, conversation, music, and creative energy in the heart of Brooklyn. Expect a powerful mix of artists, thinkers, and community coming together to share new work and new ideas in an intimate space dedicated to experimentation and culture.

📍 Awesome on Flatbush
653 Flatbush Ave
Brooklyn, NY
🗓 Saturday, May 17
⏰ 7PM

Come connect, discover new work, and experience the atmosphere that continues to make 77 such a unique gathering. Bring friends, bring curiosity, and come be a part of the community as it grows.

Last night at AWESOME, Seven performers, seven distinct sets, each one bringing something honest into the room. The energy carried all the way through, and the audience met it with real presence and gratitude.

There’s something powerful about that kind of exchange. People showing up with what they have been working on, and others showing up ready to receive it.

For something different to do midweek in NYC, Every Wednesday, No More Café on the Lower East Side opens up as a free, open coworking + creative gathering space. There’s no ticket, no cover, and nothing to sign up for. Officially it runs from 7pm–midnight, but people come in and out throughout the day.

It’s a mix of artists, writers, designers, and entrepreneurs working on their own projects in the same space. Some bring sketchbooks or print work, others are on laptops building things. The idea is simple: work alongside other people and let conversations happen naturally.

It’s low pressure and completely informal. Just show up, grab a table, and get into whatever you’re working on.

If you’ve been wanting to get out of your apartment, meet other creative people, or just change your environment for a few hours, you’re welcome to join.

Where: No More Café, Lower East Side

When: Wednesdays, 7pm–midnight (open all day)

“Of all indigenous peoples in the world, the Incas and the tribes found in the Amazon jungle are those whose culture and history have not been preserved much in written texts. Much of their history was lost with the conquistadores and the slaughter of a great many people. The Hidden way by Harrison M Love artfully takes the loose myths and legends of the peoples around the Amazon as told by a Yuyachij (a rememberer of the people of the Amazon), weaving them into a powerful tale of coming of age. Khay is a young girl and the granddaughter of a Shaman. After having survived one tragedy already, when an ominous sign appears in the image of the Kalkus, Khay and her grandfather leave to find the hidden way to the city in the middle of the jungle that has kept their culture safe from the outside world. On their journey, Khay’s grandfather starts to teach her the Shaman’s way, although it is not allowed. Khay is strong and wants to learn, but she suffers a significant loss when she finds what they are looking for. She has to decide which direction her road will lead and what she can offer the world.

The Hidden way by Harrison M Love is a work of art. Telling the story of a journey through the different landscapes found in the Amazon, highlighting the many different animals and plant life, and then adding the myths and legends together with the metaphysical aspects is a brilliant concept. With the beautiful images that complement the chapters, the book takes the reader into another world where myths and the spiritual world are found in abundance. The end reconnects with the beginning, where the rememberer describes what the position of rememberer entails and means. I love the illustrations that give the reader a visual idea of what the story wants to convey. This is a must-read for anyone enthralled by indigenous myths and legends. But be warned that as you embark on this adventure through the jungle, you will learn many things, supported by the writing style and word choice.”
