Hey {{ Name | there }}!

Yes, this winter feels unending.

Yes, the snowbanks outside your apartment have become permanent fixtures of your block.

Yes, you now technically live in outerwear.

But none of that is going to stop you.

You live here — and pay that absolutely BONKERS rent — because this city offers something no other place can. The people. The energy. The chance encounters at 1:37am that turn into stories you tell for years.

So don’t let this nonsense weather win.

This week is full of reasons to step outside your parka. We’ve got open decks where you can clock tomorrow’s talent today. And then there’s ROMANCE @ Gabriela on Thursday, where journeyman DJ and NYC stalwart Eli Escobar (a literal treasure) gives you full permission to feel everything.

Laugh. Scream. Sweat. Cry on the dance floor.

Smart starts here.
