About me

Hey there! I’m Nicole Abe Titus – a fun, vibrant 31-year-old woman splitting my time between Manhattan and Oyster Bay, Long Island. I moved to New York in 2019 from Charleston, SC to pursue art, and now I want to share my love for NYC’s creative soul with you. I have deep roots in both the energy of Manhattan and the calm beauty of Long Island’s North Shore. Whether you’re craving an upscale night out or a low-key hidden gem, I know the way. My specialty? Arts & Culture. Including but not limited to visual arts, theater, dance, opera, you name it. Let me be your local friend who turns a museum visit into a story, a gallery hop into an adventure, and a night on the Long Island sound into a memory. Come explore New York through an artist’s eyes; with warmth, charm, and a touch of Southern hospitality.

A day with me includes

The beauty of New York is that no two days are the same. With me as your local friend, you'll never wonder what's happening today. I already know. Whether you leave feeling inspired, relaxed, or electrified. My goal is to share my love of the arts with you, one unforgettable moment at a time. Beyond the big museums, I know the city's pulse when it comes to private viewings, gallery openings, and cultural drop-ins that most visitors never find. Maybe we catch a contemporary dance rehearsal, a small theater preview, or an opera talk at Lincoln Center. Music lover? There's always a string quartet in a hidden chapel or a jazz set in a downtown loft. I tailor the day to your vibe; upscale or low-key, fast-paced or slow. When you spend a local day with me on Long Island, things move at a more peaceful pace. I'm an outdoorsy girl at heart. Growing up in the South, I love being able to leave the city and sink into the calm of Long Island. Whether you want to hit the fairways (yes, I golf), cast a line for some fishing, or simply breathe in the salt air, I'll take you there. But don't worry, with me the arts never stay far behind. Long Island is rich with cultural treasures that most people overlook. I love showing friends the stunning Gilded Age mansions where art, history, architecture, and gorgeous grounds collide. There are also smaller gallery spaces, outdoor sculpture parks, and local theater productions that feel intimate and special. Unlike the city's frantic energy, out here we sip wine slowly, wander through golden hour gardens, and let art meet nature. No matter what your preference when you come to New York, I can’t wait to spend time with you and show you all of the beauty this great state has to offer.
