We are a hub for British community and culture in NYC hosting various events throughout the year and supporting people in need.

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

In the heart of late autumn, the veil between our world and the supernatural has worn thin. Inspired by the celestial friction of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, we invite you to an evening where the rigid laws of the Mortal Court collide with the wild, unpredictable magic of the Fae. 🫏🧚🏻‍♀️

We are thrilled to announce that, for the second consecutive year, St. George’s Society of New York is partnering with Chartered Accountants Worldwide (CAW) and the Society of Insurance Financial Management (SIFM)to bring this magical evening to life.

While the evening is strictly Black Tie, we ask that your attire reflects your chosen realm as a mortal or a fae.

📆 Thursday, October 22 from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM
📍La Victoria Social Club (357 West 16th Street)
