NOT FOR LEISURE was an accident spoken aloud in a Bushwick dive bar. Basically, the only rule is that there are no rules. But you have to commit to the bit until it becomes real life. NOT FOR LEISURE is here to listen & learn. NOT FOR LEISURE wants you to speak up a little bit because it’s loud in here…. NOT FOR LEISURE would really like to get a drink with you/ buy your zine from you/ lay in a field with you/ eat your poems….

BASICALLY …..

We are always seeking musicians and performers for our in-person community events and zine launches.

We are always seeking people to join our organizing team.

If you are interested in performing at the next event or getting involved generally, reach out to us at notforleisurenyc@gmail.com
