There are a plethora of cultural events going on every day in The City of New York. There are events that can suit everyone and anyone. Regardless of creed, color, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, and economic background, there is always something for everyone. Even more amazingly, many events in the city often bring people from every corner, of each group mentioned above, together for cultural events. These are groups of people who otherwise might never interact with one another. These culture diffusing events are what forms the fabric of the City of New York. As tempted as I often find myself to just sit in the corner booth of my local bar, or diner, I always try and explore the amazing cultural event opportunities that this great city has to offer.
The biggest problem with cultural events in New York, is that there are so many of them, to the point where you don't even know where to begin. It's a pretty daunting task. However, there are countless resources where you can discover new Cultural Events; often times, events you would have never otherwise been aware of. From 'The Village Voice' to 'The New Yorker,' Cultural Event listings are featured in a variety of publications. Lastly, many cultural institutions and venues in the boroughs outside of Manhattan are often frequently ignored. There is a whole world of culture beyond the bridges and tunnels of Manhattan to the outer boroughs; show the rest of your city some love!
