On Saturday, January 26th 2019, The Australian Community will be hosting its annual #OzDayNYC Black Tie Awards to recognize Australians who have donated their time and talent to assisting The Australian Community in its charitable mission.
#OzDayNYC is a re-envisioning of Australia Day: It is a modern celebration of Australian philanthropy and culture in New York, and not the establishment of a British colony more than two centuries ago.
Whether you are purchasing a single ticket, or a table for 10, everyone will feel welcome and have the opportunity to mix and socialize throughout the evening - and into the early hours at the After Party in the Long Hall Bar on the ground floor!
THE RECIPIENTS
The Australian Community will be recognizing Amelia Cormack, Nick Atkinson, Lynda Kinkade, Rupert Boyd, Georgia Kate Haege and Kurt Sneddon for their charitable contributions to our organization.
