    Here's A Bunch Of Virtual Events You Can Attend From Your Couch

    Take a makeup master class, attend a wine tasting, tour Machu Picchu — all from your living room.

    1. Become a master chef with NYC-based Haven's Kitchen. They're hosting online cooking classes in partnership with Farm to the People, an online farmers market that will deliver all necessary ingredients to your door.

    2. Ipsy, *the* beauty subscription service, is throwing a week-long party on their Instagram Live. With master makeup classes, concerts, and giveaways on the line-up, expect guest appearances from Iggy Azalea, Nikita Dragun, Madelaine Petsch, Patrick Ta, and more.

    3. Support local New Orleans businesses *and* listen to live music! A ton of NOLA bars and artists (including The Bayou Boogaloo, SideBar NOLA, and Luna Libre Live) will be streaming some truly impressive sets.

    4. Walk through The Museum of Islamic Art in Qatar with Google Arts & Culture — this 360-degree tour will bring you just steps away (well, virtually) from masterpieces that span 1,400 years.

    5. Drink your favorite 21+ beverage with the iconic NYC-based Rosé Mansion. Every Friday they host a (free) virtual happy hour via Zoom where they do birthday shoutouts, fun drinking games, dance parties, and more.

    6. Skip the airfare (turbulence included) and tour Machu Picchu by internet — a special 360-degree technology allows you to feel as if you're exploring this Inca citadel by foot.

    7. London-based Bread Ahead Bakery wants to turn your quarantine into a full-fledged bake-a-thon by offering daily lessons — the kind that cover everything from scones to focaccia.

    8. Interested in learning about skincare, beauty tips, and entrepreneurship? Then you'll want to catch Staying In & Talking Skin, a new digital video series hosted by Shani Darden and Jessica Alba!

    9. Become a vino expert and go wine tasting with Lamoreaux Landing. How does it work? They'll be hosting a weekly interactive tasting session on Instagram Live — simply order the appropriate bottles of wine the Friday before each class and you'll learn something new with every sip.
