Events, outings, and things to do for Australians living in New York City
Whether you’re watching a cult classic, a family favorite, or a blockbuster under the stars, there’s something uniquely New York about seeing a movie outdoors on a warm summer evening. Throw in a skyline view, a blanket, and some snacks, and it’s one of the best free things to do in the city during summer.
A warm spring Sunday at the end of May brought together Australian and New Zealand families for the annual AWNY Families Cricket & Picnic afternoon in Central Park. Liz Partridge, AWNY’s Families Team Co-Leader gave us a write up about this event here.
British-Australian artists, Gillie and Marc, have joined forces with “Sesame Street” in New York City. They warn us again about human-induced global peril. Their environmental messages are that animals have worth in themselves and kindness and empathy are most powerful when they emerge from opposites.
AWNY recently hosted an evening event with the author Sally Hepworth at the Australian Consulate General in New York.
Join AWNY for our Tech Week event on Friday, June 5 from 9am to 12 noon. Three sessions designed to connect, energize and spotlight Australian women shaping the future of tech in the United States.
