Stranger, smaller-room, and in-the-know Scope NYC picks for Tuesday, May 26.
A risograph workshop at Pioneer Works is the sort of process-nerd daytime event that makes the city feel wonderfully specific.
A themed Fleischer program with a live introducer is exactly the sort of curatorial oddity that feels richer than a standard matinee.
Anthology showing Fireworks is a deep-cut film move that makes sense on title, venue, and audience all at once.
An Earlybird Show at Ornithology has exactly the small-venue local-jazz specificity this list is meant to protect.
Mass for the Dakota Sioux reads like the kind of specialized screening somebody will tell you about years later.
Monument at Anthology keeps the film lane firmly in the downtown-cult pocket this list is supposed to serve.
A Thin Lizzy-focused bill at Berlin has exactly the kind of niche classic-rock devotion that belongs here.

A late Smalls jam is still one of the city's best answers to what actual musicians do after the named sets end.
