Stand-Up Comedy Impact: NYLaughs Grant Recognition


At NYLaughs, we are greatly humbled by the support of our mission from these institutions, which helps us continue bringing joy to New Yorkers through stand-up comedy in some of the most iconic venues of this vibrant city.

As a nonprofit that brings free stand-up comedy to NYC parks, plazas, libraries, and wherever New Yorkers gather and tried to disconnect from the hurdle, we seek to enrich the city through humor, while amplifying diverse comedic voices.

We’ve worked with legends and rising stars alike to turn public space into public joy for over a decade, but nothing of this could be possible without the support of these institutions.
