About New Yorkville

The Online Comedy Club for Comedians of Color

Welcome to New Yorkville! The place to be if you're a comedian of color and want to share your work with a larger, untapped audience.

Founded because of the lack of diversity and inclusion in most college comedy clubs, New Yorkville hopes to be an inclusive platform where people of color can be funny without the pressure of being the only person of color in the room (or on a comedy website).

To join the world of New Yorkville and get your writing and videos published on our platform, check out our submission guidelines here. If your piece is not accepted, we’ll let you know why. Remember, you can resubmit as many pieces you want, so with our feedback, you’ll be a part of the NYV community in no time!

Contact us at newyorkvillecomedy@gmail.com with your questions and inquiries and follow us on Instagram and Twitter to add some NYV humor to your feed. If you want to know more about us editors, do click here!

To my people of color, we see you and we’re rooting for you — now make us laugh!
