Things to do this weekend in Leeds, London and New York

Not sure what to do this weekend? Here are a few ideas for those of my followers who live in Leeds, London and New York:



In a digital world, having the opportunity to connect face-to-face with like-minded individuals can be somewhat of a rarity. The more you attend events, the more you meet people face to face, the more you expand your network and the more you position yourself for opportunities. You never know who you will meet at the next event and for that reason alone, you need to go to as many as possible. Convinced? Check out these upcoming events near you!

What's On in London?



There’s nothing quite like seeing a brilliant movie on a big screen. If it’s independent cinemas with colourful histories, design quirks, luxe features and plenty of character that float your boat, you’re in luck. The capital is blessed with a flourishing indie picture house scene, and we’ve scouted out 15 of the best independent cinemas in London.




Just when you thought Sketch
couldn’t get any more Instagrammable, the entirety of No. 9 Conduit Street is being transformed into a series of immersive gardens to coincide with Chelsea Flower Show. A number of floral-inspired menus will be available for guests across the dining emporium
, 16-27 May. Discover the best bits with our guide.

Mayfair Flower Show at Sketch


For your culture fill this weekend, head to Pimlico Road where renowned interior design firm Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler will be hosting an exhibition of Jacqueline Rufus Isaac's paintings at one of their showrooms. Coinciding with the Chelsea Flower Show, the paintings are a beautiful exploration into flowers, with an emphasis on colour.

What's On in the UK & Beyond?



Welcome to Guernsey, where haute interiors are hoarded and honesty is the best policy. Pop over the channel to an island proud of its idiosyncrasies - this weekend, why not take a weekend trip to Guernsey?




There’s nothing quite like dining on a boat. Whether you’re docked in the harbour or cruising down the river, floating eateries give your meal that extra pizzazz, that special something. Luckily the UK has a flurry of boat restaurants, from grand superyachts to cosy barges, which offer great food as well as the fun factor. Peruse our pick of the UK’s best boat restaurants!

Hello New York,

The beach is cool and all, but sand free hotel rooftops are also a vibe. 🏊‍♀️🏨💦
Maybe it's time to finally try a water taxi, The Statue of Liberty Museum opens in Liberty Island. 🗽🚢👍
Got that bonus and ready to splurge? Go big or go home at these can’t miss restaurants. Or throw a dinner party with this guide at your place. 💸🍽😋

Listen Up: Lana Del Rey - Doin' Time
Party Down: Durango: Wild Lands
Weekend Guide
The cherry blossoms have bloomed, the beaches have reopened and summer is slowly on its way. 
It's finally May! Get out and enjoy the city, you can no longer blame the weather. From discos to vegetarian festivals we've got you covered
Finger Frame
Charles Biederman’s meteoric career as an abstract painter in the 1930s saw him exhibiting alongside Alexander Calder and Charles Green Shaw, before he broke with painting entirely around 1940 in favor of a long and prolific career as a sculptor. 
Menconi + Schoelkopf presents a group of extraordinary canvases from this brief and powerful period as a painter, along with signal early examples of his wall-relief sculpture.
Make 🍕 Drink 🍷
Seriously, what are you waiting for?
Grab your friends, family, or significant other(s) and join Hungry Pop at Kesté Pizza & Vino Fulton, located at 77 Fulton Street, for a taste of Naples and to test out your pizza-making chops. (P.S., we promise you’ll want to throw out your take-out menus afterward.)
Get Out There
The cherry blossoms have bloomed and spring is in the air. 
It's finally May! Get out and enjoy the city, you can no longer blame the weather. From Artfairs to punk bar crawls we've got you covered. 
Short Story Selection
We could never imagine a life without our technology, as it has become an innate part of everything society does. If all the technology was fried by the sun, what would our society look like? How would it change?
In this world, living away from the sun is a somewhat necessity, and crimes are a little different. When two siblings father is accused of a crime, the son becomes an integral part of his punishment, so how can they help?
🍕🥂
Whether you're a native New Yorker or just recently moved here from another city, state, or country, there's one time-tested tradition that every New Yorker knows all too well: brunch. It is the quintessential New York City weekend extravaganza.
Hence, the wildly successful and sold-out interactive food experience 'Make Pizza Drink Wine' (now in two locations across Brooklyn and Manhattan) has officially spawned its very own Sunday brunch rendition in Queens, 'Make Pizza Drink Bubbly: Long Island City'.
👨🍳 🍷
Gain hands-on experience from Keste's owner Mr. Caporuscio and his staff, and you’ll also enjoy complimentary glasses of house red and white wines for the afternoon while learning first-hand about fresh mozzarella from this infamous dairy farmer turned Neapolitan pizza-maker.
