SLOTH 13: GIVING & RECEIVING at The Parkside Lounge

Dec 5 2025

Doors at 6pm / Stories at 7pm

Tickets $12

Join SLOTH for the special 3-year extravaganza! Our open mic continues with featured readers and big news! So… slow down and LISTEN IN!

Doors open at 6:00 and stories begin around 7:00pm. Sharers and listeners are all welcome! No story is required to come and enjoy the scene. To sustain our work, there is a $12 entry fee, but we turn no one away for a lack of funds.

On the fence about telling a story? We're here to help you develop it for primetime! Reach out to one of our gracious and beautiful hosts to brainstorm and refine. We'd love to get a glimpse of your inner worlds.

What’s the story theme?

It’s giving season, Slothettes — but we all know it’s rarely that simple. Sometimes, generosity feels easy; sometimes, it costs us something. This December, we’re exploring the stories behind the gifts, the awkward exchanges, the acts of kindness we didn’t see coming, the moments when giving too much (or too little) taught us something real. Tell us about the time you opened your heart, or wallet, or legs, and what happened next. We’re here for it.

What are SLOTH events?

The SLOTH is our queer gathering for friends to share stories inspired by our selected themes. Come to listen or come to tell. We welcome authentic and true(ish) tales, comedy, poetry, music, and any creative form you can put into a compelling 5-minute share. Follow us @sloth.nyc
