Have a browse through the descriptions of our eight artists’ interactions below. Each interaction lasts about 15 minutes and you can see as many as you like. Most interactions will happen through Zoom, a video conferencing application. You can use Zoom in your browser (suggested browser is Google Chrome), or download the app on your computer or phone. We recommend downloading the client or mobile app for stability and convenience.

When you book an artist performing over Zoom, your confirmation email will provide a link that looks something like this: https://us04web.zoom.us/j/0000000 (example). You can use this link to log in to Zoom at your arranged time and your artist will join you. For any other communications methods (like Messenger), just be logged in and your artist will contact you.

These interactions are free of charge for you, but if you have the means and inclination, we invite you to tip your artist directly using the button below. You can start booking your interactions now.
