Spring has sprung in New York City. And honestly, we couldn’t be happier here at ARRO! Springtime is the “Thursday of Summer” in NY! It gears us up for longer days, outdoor activities and fun with friends and family. That said, you’re probably pondering ways you can enjoy the refreshing weather. Well, welcome to The ARRO List! Here are the top things we think you’ll enjoy this spring:

 

The Astoria Film Festival (May 17-18, 2019)

For movie lovers in NYC, there are several great film festivals to attend throughout the year. The Astoria Film Festival, held at the world-famous Kaufman Astoria Studios, should be on that list. Now in its second year, the annual festival will feature a number of short films and web series in various genres, including drama, comedy, and documentary.  For the full fan experience, grab tickets to the special panels, screenings, and after parties hosted by the festival.

Smorgasburg

Smorgasburg is back!
