Lantern Walk 

Join the families of our school community for this enchanting festival, in which we honor the change of seasons. We will enjoy an evening of song, warm cider and glimmering light as we walk in procession, carrying our lanterns to guide the way.

This event will take place in Tompkins Sq. Park. We will meet under the big tree on the south side of the park, near the 7th Street entrance.


We hope to see you there!

Warmly,
Faculty and Staff of New Amsterdam School
