**Note this tour has been rescheduled for of Friday, November 20th at 2:00pm.** Meeting place is OUTSIDE the garden. You can access restrooms inside the Cafe from the garden which also has a short menu for coffee and food. Security performs a quick bad check. **Cost**: This tour is free with a voluntary donation to your guide/organizer at the end via cash, Venmo or Zelle. **Overview** This tour we will indulge in the East 80's between 5th Avenue and Park Avenue and the residential architecture of the gilded age which consists of mansions and elegant townhouses often built in the Beaux Arts, and Renaissance Revival styles, and even the Chateau style. We'll cover the history of this area and how and why it developed as an enclave for NYC's wealthy elite and how gilded age wealth gave rise to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and helped establish the Upper East Side as a center of the art world. Starting outside the garden of the Cooper Hewitt museum (pictured in photo), which was originally the mansion home of Andrew and Louise Carnegie, we'll visit several local art galleries during our journey, along with several other indoor locations with spectacular architecture. We will venture inside several buildings that were constructed as gilded age mansions and are now public spaces. **Other restrooms options before the tour.** There is a a public restroom at the Episcopal Church of the Heavenly Rest across the street. Once inside the church veer immediately to your right (just one stall). **Other nearby options: The Met Museum has an education entrance near 81st Street where you can go to the rest room without visiting the museum. Met Museum pay what you wish for NY residents with ID. And of course any of the other local museums - Guggenheim, Jewish Museum, Neue Gallery all on 5th Avenue (admission charge for non-members).** Other option is NYU's Insitute for the Study of the Ancient World which has a free museum-style exhibit currently at 15 East 84th Street. Admission is free and restrooms are in the basement via elevator. https://isaw.nyu.edu/ We'll have a break for restrooms during the tour. **Tour ends at 84th Street & Park Avenue** convenient to the 4,5,6,Q trains and numerous bus routes including the M86 crosstown. Optional afterparty at a local happy hour. Your organizer and guide, Hank Orenstein hankorenstein@gmail.com 646-596-3005 (photo courtesy of the Cooper Hewitt Museum).

YOU HAVE TO CLICK THE LINK TO THE EVENTBRITE PAGE AND PURCHASE A TICKET THERE. PRICE GOES UP AS EVENT TIME APPROACHES AND MAY SELL OUT SO GET YOUR TICKET ON EVENTBRITE ASAP.** **\*This is a multigroup event so event responses are only a portion of the total number of attendees** NYC Speed Dating - Dating Games Is your dating life starting to feel monotonous? Do your dates resemble job interviews more than actual chemistry? Sick of dedicating your entire evening to getting to know just one person? Then check out **“Dating Games” Speed Dating!** It’s a lively, modern twist on the classic format. Join us for a one-of-a-kind social experience for NYC singles! Meet new people, win raffle prizes, and connect with other fun, like-minded singles. It’s not only a great way to meet a potential partner—it’s also perfect for finding new friends or even future wingmen/wingwomen. **Suggested age range: 20s, 30s & 40s.** Our warm, welcoming host will get things started before dividing everyone into small groups at various tables. You’ll chat, mingle, and play lighthearted social games with groups of about 4–5 singles. The games are easy, super fun, and designed to help everyone open up and connect. After each round, you’ll rotate tables—just like traditional speed dating—so you'll eventually meet all the singles attending. You’ll also receive a “match sheet,” where you can mark anyone you’d like to speak with again. If they choose you as well, the host will email you each other’s contact information within roughly 24 hours so you can plan a date. Let’s be honest—we’re all tired of endless swiping on apps and meeting people who may not be anything like their profiles. A “Dating Games” Speed Dating night is a far better way to connect because you meet real people *in person* and get a genuine sense of who they are. This is an entirely new, innovative take on speed dating! We appreciate the idea behind traditional speed dating, but it can be tough to keep conversations flowing. That’s why at “Dating Games” events, you’ll have entertaining, easy-to-play games to help break the ice and avoid the typical interview-style awkwardness. We find this format helps people connect more naturally and meaningfully. ### WIN PRIZES! You’ll enjoy an evening full of fresh faces, interactive games, and social fun—no special skills needed, just a little luck! Our friendly host will guide the whole experience and help everyone get acquainted. Throughout the night you’ll play multiple games while getting opportunities to interact with all the singles of the opposite sex. When you win a game, you earn a raffle ticket—giving you chances to win prizes! ### IMPORTANT: THIS IS A PRE-PAY EVENT ONLY Tickets **must** be purchased online in advance—registration at the venue will *not* be available. As the event nears and space becomes limited, the price will increase to $35. *See more upcoming NYC events at [WWW.FRIENDZYEVENTS.COM](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dating-games-a-fun-twist-on-speed-dating-in-nyc-tickets-1982239058384?aff=oddtdtcreator)* For tickets and information: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2004089514687](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2004089514687)
