Sinners Thanksgiving Week Watch Party

**The best part of a great film isn't the credits. It's the conversation, connections, and ideas it sparks afterward.** Join The Art Meetup for a Thanksgiving-week screening of *Sinners* and an evening of conversation, creativity, and connection with fellow NYC artists, writers, filmmakers, musicians, designers, and culture lovers. The film has sparked conversations around storytelling, symbolism, culture, and identity. This is your chance to experience it with others and be part of that conversation in person. 🥂 Snacks, wine, beer, and other beverages will be provided (21+ for alcohol). 🎟️ Every attendee will be entered into a giveaway for a special prize. Before the screening, we'll gather for a relaxed discussion about the film's themes, hidden meanings, and cultural impact while getting to know other creative people from across the city. Whether you're looking for inspiration, new friends, future collaborators, or simply a more meaningful way to spend your evening, you'll find a welcoming community here. Coming solo? Most people do. Our events are designed to make meeting people feel natural, not awkward. **Monday\, November 23\, 2026 \| 6:00 PM \- 9:00 PM** **Fabrik DUMBO \| 20 Jay Street\, Suite 218\, Brooklyn\, NY 11201** 🎬 **Watch the trailer:** [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKGxHflevuk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKGxHflevuk) **Tickets** General Admission: $25 Club Members: $12.50 VIP Members: Free **Membership Benefits** The Art Meetup isn't just about attending events.

Reserve your spot early before tickets sell out.** **New York is full of creative people. The challenge is finding them. Skip another night at home and join a room where conversations go deeper, ideas are exchanged, and strangers become collaborators, friends, and community. Great films give us something to talk about. Great gatherings give us people worth talking to. Your next creative opportunity, collaborator, or breakthrough connection could be sitting in the room. Reserve your spot and be part of the experience.**

Croton Point Park Our Third Upstate Trip

**Join us on our Third Fall Colors Photo Walk at Croton Point Park** ***Saturday, November 14th. Meet near the Clock/info booth in Grand Central Station*** ***10:00am for 10:31 train departure on Metro North Hudson Line (Poughkeepsie Train) to Croton-Harmon*** *Train Ticket Prices* *One Way Off-Peak $11.75* *One Way Senior/Disabled/Medicare $8.00* *Buy your ticket at the station ticket machines,* *ticket office or through the TrainTime app.* After a pleasant train ride along the banks of the Hudson River, we will arrive Croton-Harmon Railroad Station at 11:25 am and walk across a bridge into the Croton Point Park, a 508-acre park situated on a peninsula on the east shore of the Hudson River where we will be able to enjoy a healthy 8 mile walk and photograph the scenery and hopefully still colorful fall foliage. Join us as we explore the park and its amenities. Around 3 PM, we'll leave the park and hopefully grab a bite to eat at a nearby Italian Restaurant (optional ) before heading back to the station for the return trip to New York City *The park, rich in natural and human history, is the site of the Croton Point Nature Center.* *The oldest oyster shell middens on the North Atlantic Coast uncovered by archeologists on Croton Point confirm that the peninsula was inhabited by Native Americans as early as 7,000 years ago. Croton is in fact named for the Indian sachem, Kenoten, which means "wild wind.” In the 17th century, Indians of the Kitchawank tribe on the Wappinger Confederacy occupied a large fortified village on the high flat at the neck of Croton Point, which they called Navish. This was one of the most ancient and formidable Indian fortresses south of the Hudson Highlands.* For More Info See: < [http://parks.westchestergov.com/croton-point-park](http://parks.westchestergov.com/croton-point-park) > Please be on time!
