OPEN TALKS - Can Bitcoin Help Artists Be More Independent?
Being an artist is perpetually hard and comes at huge financial risk. Worse off much of the work they do and the things they create financially benefit others more than it does themselves. Is there a better way for artists to sustain themselves?
Join us for this week's interactive community conversation. We'll discuss the passion and risk that go into being an artist and explore the idea of whether Bitcoin can help artists build a more independent financial life outside the usual funding and payment systems.
WHO'S IT FOR?
Idea people. Founders. Builders. Creatives. Researchers. The Curious. And their Supporters

FORMAT
Our format explores ideas together through our diverse backgrounds, while building relationships and community through the process. We want you to talk to each other, instead of just being talked at.
6:00PM - Settle in, grab a drink and some food at the bar, and meet some new people before we start our event.
6:30PM - Our conversation begins with our facilitator presenting the knowledge and context for the conversation along the way. The conversation between attendees will explore from surface level understandings, to deep implications and future iterations.
8:30PM - Meet and connect with new people, catch up with people you haven't seen in a while, discover all the different ways you overlap. And then just hang out, grab a drink, play some pool or ping pong!
Our desire is to be the antithesis of NYC's corporate panel and transactional networking culture. We aim to create a vibrant idea and build space in NYC that focuses on the passion and values beyond the money and the hustle.

Cohort is a space and home for ideas, and the people who think about them, create new ones, and build things from them. Many of us are founders, builders, artists, researchers, and their supporters here in NYC.
Our goal is to turn the city into a campus after college.
We hold idea and discussion events, coworking events for support and accountability for those building and creating things, and pure social events build genuine relationships and community.
