The Disability Ally NYC- Events section is here to help YOU stay on top of all the exciting Manhattan  Events coming up in the future.   All things considered, I happen to think you do a dang good job already.  But here is what I know. “There are dreamers and there are planners: the planners make their dreams come true”-Edwin Louis Cole.

The Disability Ally NYC-Events page wants you to be in the know so you can put on those dancing shoes,  a bow tie,  or whatever it is that makes you feel your Best.  You WANT to be part of the action and you SHOULD be part of the action.
So grab your calendar and add these items to it right away.   If you prefer, you can go to The Disability Ally NYC Calendar section to print it yourself.  From there you can hang it on your wall, corkboard, fridge, locker, you name it, just hang it!    Look for the word Print in the upper right corner of the Calendar and just click to be all set.  Of course, I went ahead and provided a link for you here because that’s just how I roll. https://thedisabilityallynyc.com/calendar/

Now given that everyone is going to be out there having the time of their life. I have a hunch you would love to let all of your peeps know about the amazing time you had?  Am I right?  So that brings me to my next brilliant idea.  Why not tag The Disability Ally NYC in your Pics?   What do you say?  With this in mind,  I have created an Instagram page so people all across the world can see what You and Your Fly NYC, buddies are up to in the Big Apple, Manhattan.  Come FOLLOW Me and TAG us at the next EVENT. https://www.instagram.com/thedisabilityallynyc/

The one day only event is filmed at the Green Room 42 in Manhattan and can be watched on youtube. All proceeds will benefit the Autism Community at QSAC. Thank you, Broadway and QSAC we appreciate you both!

Reel Abilities Film Festival-Upper West Side

disability film festival reel abilities

A Disability Film Festival had never been done before until The Reel Abilities Festival came along in 2007. In the spirit of diversity and inclusion Reel Abilities’ goal has always been to bring attention to the lives of people with disabilities. By showing these fascinating films it is the hope that more people became aware of both of the struggles and successes of individuals who have various impairments. Entries to the festival can be either made by or have someone with a disability as a subject matter.

With this intention of acceptance, it comes as no surprise that a Disability Film Festival with such substance would take place at The Marlene Mayerson Jewish Community Center. Also known as the JCC-Manhattan, this location has served as a perfect backdrop for such a dynamic event every year.

Given that the event has grown immensely over the years, the festival has now expanded to an international program. In fact, Reel Abilities is the largest festival of it’s kind anywhere in the world. Certainly, you don’t miss this week-long event! So Sign Up on the email list. As soon as you do that you’ll be the first to know all the upcoming details. Heck, maybe you want to submit a film?
