Motherhood Unscripted: A Celebration of Caregiving Through Film

A WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH EVENT

We are bringing together NYC’s most influential caregivers, mothers, and creatives to bridge the gap between the stories we tell and the lives we lead. For one night, we’re transforming Cocoon Tribeca into an adults-only (21+) sanctuary for peer-to-peer connection. This is a space for attendees to reclaim their identities beyond their caregiving roles and societal expectations through curated cinema, interactive games, and community dialogue. This event invites our community to move from isolation to play, finding visibility and joy alongside the peers who truly understand their story.

THE EXPERIENCE

Curated Cinema: A selection of short films by mom filmmakers that dive into the raw,

unscripted conversations about motherhood and the complexity of care.

Active Dialogue: Filmmaker talkbacks and "Care Stories Circles" designed to spark

reflection and shared experience among all attendees.

Interactive Play: High-energy Caregiver Bingo and Pop Culture Trivia designed to break

the ice and build a lasting community of peers.

Social Reception: Signature cocktails and light bites in a sophisticated, child-free

environment in the heart of Tribeca.
