Free Dance Parties💃 Free Museums🎨 @newyorkers Column 🎙️

Welcome back to New York Locals 👋

⋆⭒TOP 5 WEEKEND ACTIVITIES⋆⭒

1. 250+ Brands, New Finds Every Weekend 🛍️

Not-A-Normal Show hits Union Square this spring — 250+ indie brands in fashion, vintage, home, and more, rotating weekly.

2. Free Dance Nights Return to Bryant Park 💃

Bryant Park's free Dance Party series is back April 29–May 14 — weekly lessons in salsa, swing, samba, and more at the fountain every Wednesday and Thursday. No experience or partner needed.

3. Pilates….But With Kittens 🐈‍⬛

Purlates is NYC’s feel-good fitness class combining full-body Pilates with adoptable rescue kittens—equal parts workout and wholesome chaos, with proceeds supporting local rescues. It’s selling out fast for a reason. 🐾

Score free admission at some of NYC’s top museums, including MoMA, The Met, The Whitney, and more! Perfect for a solo wander or an easy date night. Just be sure to reserve your spot in advance.

5. Small Business Spotlight: Masterskya 🥋

Masterskya Jiu-Jitsu, now based in Chinatown, has grown into one of NYC’s most respected martial arts communities, producing world-class competitors while staying deeply rooted in local impact. All levels are welcome, whether you’re here to train, compete, or find your crew. 🥋
