Fun & Global, 9/28-10/4

So you may be asking yourself, amidst the stress of school work and club life, "What can Global NYers do this week?" Well, I have a couple ideas for you which could serve as stressbusters or just plain entertainment:

1. Sikh Film Festival (http://www.sikharts.com/film-festival.html) - Saturday, Oct. 4th - An affordable, fun, and cultural experience. Great for those of you interested in discussions of religion, multiculturalism and film. Also great for anyone just looking for something to do!

2. Havana @ Umbrage Gallery (http://umbragegallery.com/) - Thru Oct. 31 - Free exhibit in DUMBO Brooklyn, showcase of some of the most important photographs in the history of Cuba's Revolution. Black and white images remembering and commemorating the Revolution's 50th anniversary.

3. Multimedia NYC @ MCNY (http://www.mcny.org/exhibitions/current/timescapes-a-multimedia-portrait-of-new-york.html) - Visit the Museum of the City of NY for several AWESOME exhibits, including a 25-minute multimedia experience tracing NYC's historical growth. It's a $5 suggested entrance fee, but if you say you're "a neighbor", they waive the suggested fee. I may go on Thursday or Friday.

If you explore any of these options If you write about your experience, pass it to me, and I'll post it on the blog. Or, if you take part in any other cultural/global experience here in the City, let me know. I'd love to include it in the blog.
