This is a group for anyone who wants to start an indie/pop/alt rock band. I write some music, sing and play guitar and have a drummer. We are looking for cool, low-key down to earth bassist, keyboardist and a lead guitarist. Musicians who are songwriters and back-up singers is a major plus, but not required. We just want to have dedicated and chill people who are available to practice once or twice a week, record songs, and do some gigs throughout city. Please let me know if you are interes …

Two and a half years ago, my father passed away suddenly. It hit me very hard. I gave a couple of support groups a try, but they didn't really work for me personally in the long run. I decided to give this thing a go and create a group that isn't a support group in the traditional sense. I hope to get a bunch of us together who have experienced a loss which has affected us deeply, which would be a source of mutual understanding, and would possibly (hopefully) enable some deep friendships to deve …

Love to go to see indie and foreign films and then talk about them afterward? Me, too! Hi, I'm Francesca, an indie filmmaker and trans-media artist who lived in Manhattan for 25 years and thought nothing of calling a friend and suggesting we meet in an hour at one of the many arthouse theaters around town. But, when I moved to NJ I found my friends here did NOT share my tastes so I created the NJ ArthouseFilm Society (just to sound fancy). And, wouldn't you know it, there are tons of people lik …

Let's bring talent back to the music scene. If you are a musician, promoter, producer, or just a fan. Let's meet at talk and share marketing skills. And learn what other artists are out there. By combining our talents and contact, you can hopefully survive without a label.

I'm an MFA candidate in creative writing who has recently studied under a fantastic teacher at the top of the comics industry. I have a few books in development, and I'm looking to get together with other creatives in the field.

This is a group for both fans and designers of independent fashion. I was thinking we could get together at least once a month and either do something low-key (drinks, dinner, etc.) or go on a shopping/fashion excursion. Some possible destinations include The Market NYC, Chelsea Market, the flea markets in Brooklyn, etc. Pretty much any place that sells or promotes emerging designers is fair game. We are open to suggestions as to activities and dates/times. Designers, this is also a group for yo …

It’s the end of another grueling day at work. You’ve finally gotten out and in your hand, you grip your tell-tale bag holding the latest adventures of Peter Parker side by side with the Last Son of Krypton as he soars the skies above Metropolis while The Dark Knight Detective searching the streets of Gotham, all striving to rid the world of crime and injustice. So what do you do know? Go home? No, you don’t want to go home just yet. You’re thirsty and in need of good friends to talk to. Come and …

I started this meetup because comic books/graphic novels have had a resurgence in popularity recently with the movie, t.v. and video game adaptations. The technology of the last five to ten years has made it possible for the independent creators to go forward on their own via web comics with greater acc …

Filmmakers are documenting and creating shorts and features highlighting the borough, as well as supporting local film festivals and art venues. Time to unite, to share ideas, successes, failures and ways to help promote and build on the talent and perspective that is unique to Queens, NY.
