Americas Society / Council of the Americas (ASCOA) is a business organization focused on the politics and culture of the Americas. It produces excellent music and arts programs in a beautifully restored Park Avenue mansion.
The audience is very academic and very Upper East Side. It’s a good place for networking.
Thank you Americas Society for sponsoring New York Latin Culture Magazine!
