The Conversation
Postcards From New York City
Sometimes it’s nice to take a moment and marvel at the city we’re in. (Or visit!) This month, come ready with a few faves in NYC: Favorite Place To Go, Favorite Non-Profit Org, Favorite Small Business, and Favorite Restaurant. Together, we’ll build a little map of love for this remarkable city.
At the same time — we’ll have postcards & stamps on the table so you can write a little postcard message to anyone you choose (even yourself!) – after the dinner, I’ll send them off in the mail for you!
