Events

  1. The Informant!

    12:00 PM · Paris Theater

    A smart daytime screening at the Paris still beats most default Monday plans.

  2. The Player

    2:00 PM · Metrograph

    Metrograph is where this kind of movie still feels freshly social.

  3. The Handmaiden

    3:00 PM · Paris Theater

    If you take one long film slot, this is the one with the most payoff.

  4. Dan Weiss Trio

    6:00 PM · Smalls Jazz Club, New York, NY

    Dan Weiss at Smalls gives Monday some real internal structure.

  5. Jihee Heo Trio

    7:00 PM · The Django, New York, NY

    The Django set is the more polished room if you want the night to start clean.

  6. New York Proud: Stories from the City of Immigrants with Waterwell

    7:00 PM · Peter Jay Sharp Theatre, Symphony Space, New York, NY

    Symphony Space is the right home for something civic that still wants some theatrical lift.

  7. EMBER - Caleb Curtis - Noah Garabedian - Vinnie Sperazza - Set 1

    7:30 PM · Close up

    This is the sharper small-room choice if you want musicians really listening to one another.

  8. VANGUARD JAZZ ORCHESTRA

    8:00 PM · Village Vanguard, New York, NY

    The Vanguard orchestra is still one of the few recurring city rituals that justifies itself every time.

  9. Kota the Friend & Friends

    8:00 PM · Blue Note Jazz Club

    This is the more outward-facing Monday ticket without feeling disposable.

  10. Pasquale Grasso Trio

    9:00 PM · Mezzrow, New York, NY

    Mezzrow remains the easiest way to keep the night elegant after everything else has thinned out.
