storytime is meant to bring us all together through the communal art forms of storytelling and live music. Each night has a unique host and musical guest who curate the theme and bring in new communities at each gathering. In between sets, audience members are encouraged to get up on stage and tell a story relating to that evening’s theme, creating an authentic and powerful collective experience. This FREE night of music and storytelling features free drinks and tasty bites. 


The Neighbors will also host a FREE virtual writing workshop on how to adapt real stories into personal writings, taught by Danielle E. Moore (EP of Green Light Group Productions), on Sunday, May 14 from 3pm-4pm. Visit www.eventbrite.com/cc/storytime-at-the-cell-1953649 to reserve your spot. 


This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
