PAST EVENTS
PACC'S FIRST ANNUAL BARCRAWL
THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
In all about 100 people turned out Monday night to support PACC, enjoy delicious cocktails, mingle and dance. Part of a series hosted by Young Friends of PACC, the event was a fun way to meet neighbors, connect with old friends, and discover the new hot spots on Fulton Street. Not to mention , it was an opportunity to learn more about PACC's mission and the free services PACC provides to the community. The evening started at Hot Bird, a roomy bar converted from an old garage with a food truck on the large front patio at Atlantic and Clinton. The group then moved to Bar Olivino, and the Fulton Grand and ended the evening with dancing at Buka, a Nigerian restaurant on Fulton Street.
The event was a successful end of the year gathering for the Young Friends of PACC. The group plans fun events, volunteers their time and talents and acts as ambassadors of PACC's work. Members learn about community issues and enjoy meeting neighbors and other like-minded individuals. There is no fee or donation to join. If you are interested please contact sujatha_snyder@prattarea.org or call 718 522 2613 ext 28. We are planning our calendar for next year and would love your input in the process.
