About this Event

Come collage with us! Meet fellow covid conscious queer goths and create beautiful art together. :) You can bring your own supplies, use ours, or do both! We will have a selection of patterned/colored paper, stickers, ribbons, newspapers, magazines, and Victorian printouts to collage with. We will also have a collection of victorian gothic horror books available for use in your collages! With our materials, you have the option create individual collage pieces on paper, create a tassled bookmark, or both!

We will of course have a carefuly curated playlist of our favorite goth music to play while we craft.

Tickets are $15 with all materials included!

All ticket funds will go back into hosting more free + accessible programming and nightlife for MGNYC!

What is Masked Goths NYC?

Are you tired of going to shows and being the only one masking? Do you have difficulty engaging with your local scene because nightlife (busy bars, crowded concert venues) isn’t really your thing? Do you ever struggle to feel safe as a queer person, even when others in your scene claim to be “allies”?

Masked Goths of NYC is a social group for Covid Conscious queer goths seeking a sense of community in the NYC scene. Nobody should have to feel excluded from their subculture just because they want to keep themselves (and others) safe! We aim to create an environment where CC goths can come together and build community through accessible + Covid safe(r) events and meetups. MGNYC seeks to prioriritze trans, disabled, and nonwhite goths as we work to create spaces in a scene we often feel excluded/erased from. Masks (KN95 or better), provided and required, always.

Accessibility

High-filtration masks/respirators (KN95 or better) will be required and provided for all attendees to participate in this event. We are a Covid Conscious events group, and require masks at all of our events in order to keep our events accessible to our disabled + immunocompromised community members who are often disregarded when it comes to programming/events. Masking is one of the easiest ways we can all practice community care, and it takes so little to automatically make a space safer! :)

If you are feeling sick (even if you don’t think it’s COVID), have recently been exposed, or in a high-risk situation, we ask that you please stay home! This is how we keep each other safe.

The event will be at The Nonbinarian Bookstore, 1130 President St, off the 2/3/4/5 trains and B44/B43/B48/B49 busses. Nonbinarian has a small ramp to get into the building if you require assistance getting in via mobility aid!
