How To Make Latte Art At This Year's New York Coffee Festival
The New York Coffee Festival

Here's how: Go to this year's New York Coffee Festival. Hosted at the 69th Regiment Armory on September 16 - 18, you can get your cup of coffee with a dose of music, art, food, education and charity.

You can find vendors, new lab sessions, latte art demonstrations and more at the actual event. You'll find Bluestone Lane Coffee, La Marzocco, Ally Coffee and Califia Farms at the festival, alongside 70 other innovate exhibitors. Additionally, the Coffee Masters NYC barista championship, The Lab program with interactive demonstrations, workshops, talks and tastings, the Coffee Music Project and the Coffee Art Project will be going on during the three-day festival.

After the success of last year's inaugural event, there are a number of new features to get excited about. I know, let's all try to contain ourselves. The Latte Art Live allows visitors to learn how to make latte art through demonstrations given by some of the best baristas in New York City and from around the world.

The Village features innovative brands that you may have not heard of before and offers products that are not sold or available elsewhere (yet).

The Espresso Martini Bar is probably the most exciting, at least for me. Try a range of coffee cocktails that will absolutely be an upgrade from your regular order of brewed coffee before work.

Another cool announcement for this year is the "Coffee With" Campaign: Which New York personality would you like to share coffee with? The festival is giving New Yorkers a chance to reveal who their ideal coffee date would be, as well as to enter to win VIP passes to this year's festival. Fill out this form and send in who would be your perfect coffee date.

But it's also the launch event of Coffee Week NYC, which promotes the coffee industry while also raising money for clean water and sanitation projects in coffee producing communities.

Get ready for hundreds of free samples of coffee and food. But, another incentive to attend is that The New York Coffee Festival is donating 50 percent of ticket proceeds to charity: water via the Allegra Group's Project Waterfall initiative. Project Waterfall will be able to continue bringing clean water to coffee countries, like Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Rwanda with the help of these proceeds.

All in all, learn how to make latte art, give back and get caffeinated at this year's New York Coffee Festival. See you there.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
