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

​Here & Now is curated, phone-free social experience for ambitious and intentional people who want more out of their time offline.

​​​​​​Upon arrival, you'll check in your phone with our team for safekeeping and receive The Present - a kit with everything you need for your night offline.

From there, your only job is to be completely present and undistracted, spending quality time with quality people (plus some board games!), over a select menu of drinks and snacks.

​​​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:

Weds, April 8th 2026, 630pm-9pm EST
