EuroCircle & The VL Studios are happy to present our first joint Welcome Back NYC/Nordic Midsummer social event celebrating the reopening of New York City with leading professionals at the historic New York Estonian House.
Join us between 6PM-11PM for happy hour cocktails, handmade drinks, and European beer, as well as receive a tour of the historic Estonian House. The Estonian has a long and distinguished heritage tied into the evolution of the east side of Manhattan.
The venue is one of New York City’s architecture treasures featuring historically preserved interior and mostly unchanged exterior since it was built. The house was formerly a civic club, a French Beaux-Arts style, designed by Thomas A. Gray in 1898.
The landmark building stayed in the original owner’s family until the Estonian Educational Society, Inc. purchased it in 1946. Today the space houses several Estonian organizations across its four floors. The first and second floors feature a lobby, bar & restaurant, Billiard Room, The Great Hall, and the Blue Room.
The Long Island Estonian House is hosting their only annual fundraiser with the help of the New York Educational Society and the Estonian Amateur Athletes Association.
Please come enjoy the beautiful grounds & support the maintenance and activities of the LI Estonian House.
Grounds open at 10:00am. Join us for Estonian food, music, drinks, and a great day!
