Summer Baithak at Happy Monday Studios

We create an intimate space for raga-based music and dance rooted in the South Asian diaspora. It’s all about listening, showing up for each other, and giving emerging artists a chance to grow in front of a live, engaged audience.

We’re excited to host our next baithak on Saturday, June 6th at Happy Monday Studios in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Think intimate mehfil vibes: music, shared space, and really taking the time to listen. We’ll be set up in a cozy studio with rugs on the floor (baithak-style), plus some chairs and a bit of standing room. Come comfy, come curious, and hang with us for the evening. Expect around 8 raga-inspired performances from local artists, and a night to just be present and listen.

We’re excited to welcome back Hot Chai Lady! They’ll be serving up delicious chai and snacks to enjoy with the music. Download Venmo or bring cash, and show them some love. ☕💛
