Dear MPI Greater New York Chapter Members,
October has arrived—and with it, the true spirit of fall! The air is crisp, the city is buzzing, and just like the leaves, our chapter is turning toward fresh opportunities and meaningful conversations.
September in Review
We kicked off the season with impact. From rolling up our sleeves at the Fall Harvest Volunteer Event to collaborating with MPI New Jersey for a joint educational program, last month was all about community, connection, and growth. Thank you to everyone who joined in—your energy continues to define our strength.
Behind the Scenes
From September 21–23, our Chapter Board gathered for a retreat at Windrose on Hudson. Together, we welcomed the 2026 Board of Directors and laid the foundation for an exciting year ahead. The retreat was filled with vision-setting, strategy building, and plenty of collaboration to ensure that MPIGNY continues to thrive and innovate in the coming year.
What’s Brewing This Month
We’re proud to host our EDI Education Event: “Inclusive Impact: Designing Events” on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at the Wythe Hotel. This dynamic panel will bring together thought leaders and industry voices to dive into what it really means to design with EDI at the core. From choosing accessible and welcoming venues to curating inclusive content and experiences, and even evaluating for ongoing improvement, our panelists will share practical insights that move beyond simple accommodation.
Your Role Matters
Our chapter thrives because of the passion and commitment of members like you. If you’ve been thinking about getting more involved, now’s the time! Jump into a committee, lend your expertise, or share ideas that help shape the future of MPIGNY.
As we move through October, let’s embrace the season of change—refreshing our goals, deepening our connections, and stirring conversations that matter (pumpkin spice optional, but encouraged).
Here’s to a fall filled with inspiration, collaboration, and plenty of reasons to celebrate together.
