- 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm | Sunday April 19, 2026
- The Lobby | Ace Hotel Brooklyn
Join us for a co-ed night of puzzles, DJs, art, drinks, and meaningful convos!
Join HELD for a vibrant evening of connection, play, and music at Ace Hotel Brooklyn, one of the borough’s most thoughtfully designed spaces.
Traditionally, HELD Puzzle Night is an intimate gathering created for Black women and femmes to unwind, spark conversation, and quite literally piece together new ideas and friendships. For this special edition, HELD is opening the experience to anyone who wants to join in the joy of slowing down, connecting, and being present.
Guests will enjoy beautifully crafted puzzles alongside Ace Hotel Brooklyn’s food and bar offerings, set within a warm, welcoming atmosphere. As the evening unfolds, the energy shifts from thoughtful play to movement and release, with dance-ready sounds curated by DJ DAYI.
This gathering reflects HELD’s ongoing mission to center accountability, creativity, and community—while honoring the joy that emerges when people come together with intention.
About HELD
HELD is an Black-led women-owned accountability group bringing black women together to hold each other accountable in working towards passion-driven goals that honor your creative spirit.
All ticket proceeds will go toward supporting future HELD programming.
Hope to see you there!
