Community Thursdaze

Thursday August 7th

Every Thursday

Introducing Community THURSDAZE

A weekly, open-format series built by and for the community, hosted at Durty Nellie’s a massive venue with four unique spaces, room for 30+ vendors, a rooftop patio, and space for 500+ people to vibe, move, and connect.

We’re picking our lineups weekly from community submissions - giving local DJs, visual artists, performers, and makers the stage they deserve. Shows are affordable, vendor spots are accessible, and the atmosphere is built on creativity, not competition.

FREE UNTIL 8PM!

This is your space.

Bring your skills, your passion, your weird, your wonder.

Let’s build something unforgettable — together.

07:00 PM - 12:00 AM
