Here & Now: A Phone-Free Experience (NYC)

​​​You spend your days scrolling, thinking, pushing.

​​​​Always plugged in. Always on.

​​​​But deep down, you’re craving something that can’t be found on a screen.

​​​​So what if you took a break?

​​​​​​What to Expect:

​​​​​A curated, phone-free social experience for intentional thinkers who want more out of their time offline.

​​​​​​Upon arrival, you'll check in your phone with our team for safekeeping.

From there, your only job is to be fully present and spend quality time with quality people, over a curated menu of drinks and snacks (available for purchase).

​​​Who’s Invited:

​​Those who value attention, intention, and human connection.

​​​​If you're craving real relationships with people who get it, you’ll feel right at home.

​​​​​This is not a networking event. This is a place to feel human again.

​​​Can I come alone?

Yes! Many people come alone and leave with a long list of people they actually want to see again.

​​​Where:

​Lower East Side, NYC. Address released upon approval.

​​​Date & Time:

Wed January 21st 2026, 630pm-9pm EST
