InspiredWordNYC presents LAST FRIDAYZ @ Local Project, an event inspired by the epochal underground spirit of the long-gone Gaslight Café, SAMO, and Folk City.
A dynamic mix of music, live art (including face-painting), poetry, spoken word, and performance art (including human canvases) – with both electrifying showcased artists and our talented open mic’ers – LAST FRIDAYZ will happen every last Friday of the month (except during the holiday season months of November and December) within one of NYC’s great creative spaces, Local Project – a non-profit arts organization that for over a decade in Long Island City, Queens, has been committed to providing emerging artists with a space and educational forum.
ALL AGES WELCOME.
