We host two types of
sober events:
SobrieTea Parties™ are chill, sober social events where people can connect with one another while playing interactive games and drinking tea. Our upcoming SobrieTea Parties in NYC:
Readings on Recovery™ is a large-scale production that follows the format of a reading series - only it’s so much more. These sober events are fully funded by sponsors and donors. Check out the info below for more details:
Readings on Recovery™
This *free*, curated event series where individuals are given the platform to share what recovery means to them. Performers are encouraged to express themselves however they feel comfortable whether it be through personal essay, stand-up comedy, poetry, live music, or dance.
Diversity in adversity is a top priority for us when curating these events. We carefully select people that are recovering from a spectrum of adversities in order to make these events as inclusive and informative as possible. Our events cover topics from substance abuse to technology addiction to eating disorders to dysfunctional relationships to coming out stories and more. The goal of this series is to show that we are all recovering from something whether we identify as an addict or not. We also are passionate about destigmatizing the shame that is often associated with recovery. Here at SobrieTea Party, we are advocates for celebrating recovery OUT and PROUD.
These events are special to the New York City community for many reasons. One of which is that we partner with local food and drink entrepreneurs. This platform is a not only a celebration of recovery but also a celebration of local business. In order to keep these events free to the public, we collaborate with local non-profits and other organizations who sponsor the event production. If you’re interested in working with us, please reach out to our sponsorship coordinator, Cam Berlin, at [email protected].
