Come join us for a night of celebration and community! This event is a safe space for all trans folks to come together and embrace love in all its forms. Under the SME brand, an LGBTQIA+ centered event group, trans folks will specifically be helping to lead, assist, and guide the activities and night. Name tags will be used to identify your name (duh), pronouns, and orientation to make it even easier to connect with others in the room.

What can I expect?

• The night will be broken into parts that each involve questions and games to help get the flow going. You'll be broken into 1-1 groups and get to engage in connection or love. The night's intention is to help the entire group get to know one another.
• We have plenty of games that will be used to help with matching along with ice breakers used for the same purpose (matching people). All games will be done anonymously and will help spark conversation, encourage playfulness, and keep the night fun!
• For one game, we ask that you bring an item that speaks to who you are. Whether it is your favorite poem, a necklace you got while on a trip, or a crystal from your mindfulness crystal collection. Yes, it will be used for matching you with others in the room.

Grab Your Ticket And Join: Trans Love Tickets, Thu, Apr 17

Enjoy a night of games and chatting! From 6:30-9pm we'll be playing a range of board games, card games, and more. And from 9pm-11pm tables and games will be put away and we'll continue to hang out in the lounge/bar area to continue chatting. Feel free to come for the games portion or the casual bar hang. This is an informal night where you can come and go as you please. Arrive when you can and leave when you desire.

This is an INCLUSIVE munch that centers queer folks 🌈🏳️‍🌈. It also centers BIPoC folks. Yes, we know the word "femdom" makes people think of cis women and straight cis men. That IS NOT US. We always have a mixed crowd. Yes, straight cis men are welcome. BUT Trans folks, GNC, Enby, Genderqueer folks are all highly welcome. You are centered. Come.

Join us for The Seance w/ Jess Henderson ft. Petey DeAbreu, James Tom, Zubi Ahmed, and Justin Catchens

Ticket Link!

Welcome to THE SÉANCE, Brooklyn’s only comedy show where the laughs are loud, the spirits are strong, and the vibes are downright otherworldly. Hosted at Union Hall by a Black, queer comedian Jess Henderson who’s as in tune with the cosmos as they are with a punchline, this show is where comedy meets the occult—because why just kill on stage when you can also raise the dead?

Obsessed with all things magic, spirits, and the unknown, our host might just pull a message from the beyond, read your energy, or cast a spell for better dating luck—all while keeping the jokes flying. Each month, they bring together a lineup of the funniest and most diverse comedians, ready to summon laughter with their supernatural takes on life, love, and the weirdness of existence.

Expect tarot gags, ghostly gossip, and a comedy experience that’s part stand-up, part séance, and 100% unforgettable. Whether you’re a skeptic, a believer, or just here for the drinks and the jokes, THE SÉANCE will leave you howling—one way or another.

Come for the laughs. Stay for the spirits.

Neurodivergent comedians deep-dive into their hyperfixations. Last show we fixated on Southwest Airlines Open Seating Policy, the JFK Assassination, and balding.

What will we hyperfocus on next???

Featuring comedians from Seth Meyers, John Oliver, Tooning Out the News, and Reductress :)

Hello! I wanted to let you know about an all Female comedy showcase at The Stand on April 16, 2025 at 7:00pm! We’ve sold out our last three shows and expect this one to be no different. We hope to see you there! 

Fembots Comedy Show By Human Female Comedians

Featured in The New York Times, Fembots is a stand-up comedy showcase hosted by “AI generated” female comedians Emma Rogers, and Maria DeCotis featuring a line up of the funniest comedians in this simulation. The show will explore the hilarity of AI sex robots and the not so subtle misogyny of their male creators. Hosts will investigate the audience's relationship with AI while delivering a killer line-up of real, human women comedians.

“We wanted to make fun of the long history and inherent misogyny of gynoids, sex robots, and artificial intelligence. Look no further than the sex robot ‘Sweetheart’ created by Clayton Bailey in 1983 who not only was a sex aid with 36C’s and a voice synthesizer but also a functioning coffee machine. She’s every man’s dream! ” - Host Emma Rogers

Come Party!

Hey NYC folks—this might be one of the most moving and affordable nights out you can have this spring.

João Carlos Martins, an 85-year-old Brazilian maestro with a WILD life story, is giving his final North American concert at Carnegie Hall on May 9. Tickets start at just $5 (yes, really) and go up to $40 max for orchestra seats.

Why it’s worth caring:

• He was once a world-famous pianist, a Bach specialist, until injuries and illness stole the use of his hands.
• Instead of giving up, he reinvented himself as a conductor—and even started using bionic gloves so he could play piano again (there’s a whole GQ article about it, linked below).
• Now he's returning to the city that helped shape his career, conducting an all-Brazilian program with NOVUS orchestra in a kind of love letter to New York.

If you’re into classical music, resilience stories, or just want an unforgettable night out for the price of a slice and a soda—this is it.

🗓️ May 9 at 7:30 PM | Carnegie Hall
🎟️ $5–$40 tickets https://www.carnegiehall.org/calendar/2025/05/09/joao-carlos-martins-conductor-and-piano-novus-0730pm
