Chinatown Social, To celebrate **Chinese New Year** and the Year of the Fire Horse, I’ve secured a world-class venue to scale our celebration. We are officially taking over **Lore** on February 19th. We are bringing the energy of our community to one of the most exclusive spaces in the city, featuring 3D projection mapping and a world-class sound system. **The Strategy:** Because we are moving to a high-status venue, we have to move to a **strictly curated guestlist.** I’m giving this group the "First Look" to secure your spots before I release the announcement to the general public tomorrow. 🏮 **Action Required:** To maintain the exclusivity of the event and receive the entry code, please finalize your RSVP: Let’s show Lore how we celebrate Chinese New Year.

Hi everyone, It has been way too long since our last gathering, and we’ve truly missed the music and the company. We are so excited to get the rhythm going again and return to our monthly schedule! For our "comeback" session, we’re heading to **Lombard** for a traditional baithak-style evening of music, tabla, and social connection. ### What to Expect: Our group remains a no-pressure, warm, and safe space for all. We’ll have impromptu performances, and you are welcome to participate in any way you’d like—whether as a dedicated listener or a performer. We honor everyone’s time. We will begin and end promptly at the scheduled times, so please plan to arrive on time! We’ve missed the energy of this community and can’t wait to see (and hear) you all again. **Address and Contact** # will be provided to rsvp members one day before the event. For now: the location is in Lombard. Genres: Hindustani, Carnatic, and open to any other! We're always looking to hear any and all types of music/instruments!
