Meet other local composers, song writers, performers, lyricists, artists. Members have the opportunity to play examples of their work, explore and discuss relevant issues and ideas of creativity, performance, collaboration, method, technology, etc. If you're interested in growing, networking and improving as an artist, this meetup is for you.

This group is for Actors, Singers, Writers, Dancers, Producers, Casting Agents, Composers, Musicians, Lyricists, Pianists, Stage Managers, Videographers, Photographers, and anyone who is interested in meeting the local talent in Astoria.  This group is meant to bring together people from this community so that we can all support each other and network in a fun, welcoming environment.  We will be organizing regular events geared toward a wide range of artists, so hopefully we'll see you soon!
