PYNK NYC and Organic Jam Session returns to Selina Chelsea Rooftop

On Wednesday, August 25, PYNK NYC and Organic Jam Session took place at the Selina Chelsea Rooftop in New York City. The night was illuminated by the lights of the City as everyone enjoyed their time watching performers by the rooftop pool and buying products from the amazing vendors at the event.

The Selina Rooftop has resulted to be the perfect venue for the growing and diverse audience cultivated by Imani Jones and Hoox, the co-producers of the evening. The PYNK Mixer and Organic Jam Session are open to all performers that want to show off their talent.

The first floor was where attendees could find vendors ready to show and sell their unique products. Many of the vendors are partnered with Shop Local Designers, which helps brands gain the exposure they deserve. This week there were a variety of vendors like hair products, accessories, and clothes.

One of the brands that was highlighted on the Find Your ID NYC Instagram page was Velvet and Turbans, an online curated vintage shop that showcases Black beauty and Black excellence. “From the venue, to the beautiful scenery, to the interaction between other vendors, to the staff that went above and beyond. My experience was such a high one that I am still on,” Starr Williams, owner and operator of Velvet and Turbans, said.

The talent of the night consisted of incredible artists like MARCANO, Queen Li, Nkumu Katalay and Vanessa Andrade. “It was a pleasure to perform at Pynk NYC and Organic Jam sesh. I met so many amazing creatives and was super inspired by it. Super happy to be part of it and be able to experience it,” said Andrade about her night at the event. 

The goal for PYNK NYC and Organic Jam Sessions is to continue creating opportunities for performers and creatives to showcase their work and talent all over New York. To continue creating a safe space for performers and a welcoming space for a diverse audience. Thank you to Selina Chelsea for the venue to make these opportunities possible.
