Free Holiday Community Gathering in New York City
New York City is set to host a vibrant holiday community gathering on Thursday, December 19th, at 5:30 p.m. The event, taking place at The 52 World’s Living Art Museum, aims to bring together locals for an evening filled with celebrations, art, and community spirit.
Event Highlights
The holiday celebration will feature special guests Tel Wallace and Sophie Grizzle, the founders of She Builds Wealth. Known for fostering connections among women entrepreneurs and business owners, Wallace and Grizzle will serve as the art tour guides for the evening. Their initiative has created an online space where women in various fields can support one another and grow together.
Attendees can expect an evening rich with seasonal festivities and an array of delightful refreshments. A food truck will be on-site, offering delicious options for guests to enjoy as they mingle and celebrate the season. This event not only promises a warm atmosphere but also serves as a perfect opportunity to connect with friends and neighbors.
Spirit of Giving
In the spirit of the holiday season, guests are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to donate to Manna Food Pantries of Pensacola. Suggested items include tuna, low-sodium canned fruits and vegetables, soups, oatmeal, peanut butter, and pasta. This initiative underscores the importance of community support and generosity during the holidays.
A Cultural Hub
The 52 World’s Living Art Museum strives to be more than just an art venue; it is a vibrant cultural hub that fosters connections and celebrates international artists and their exceptional works. Located within a 52-acre mixed-use development, which includes 26 acres dedicated to preserving nature, this unique setting features various residential options such as Inspire Apartments, Thrive Lofts, and Evolve Townhomes.
The museum integrates art with the environment, providing a fresh perspective on how art can influence residential design and community life. As an outdoor gallery, it stands as a testament to the transformative power of creativity, shaping environments and forging connections among people and nature.
Upcoming Performances
In addition to the holiday event, the local arts scene in New York City continues to thrive. Upcoming productions include the southeast premiere of a brand new musical, Mystic Pizza, based on the popular film, as well as the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, which will showcase Brooklyn’s Bridge in its first full-scale professional debut in February.
Residents are invited to participate in the ongoing recognition of talent in the community by voting for the 2024 BroadwayWorld Orlando Awards, with voting ending on December 31 at midnight. This is a chance to ensure that local theatres, stars, and shows receive the acknowledgment they deserve.
As New York City gears up for this community celebration and the exciting lineup of performances, residents are reminded of the importance of coming together to support one another and celebrate the rich cultural fabric of their city.
