For Immediate Release:
January 19, 2023
Recently, the newly opened event space, Morris Park Performing Arts Center at Jacobi (Jacobi Hospital’s Bldg. 4 auditorium) hosted an amazing event for its community and partners.
NIDC excitedly co-sponsored a viewing of the Polar Express with Assemblywoman Nathalia Fernandez in partnership with the Morris Park Community Association.
Conductors invited our families aboard the Polar Express experience with a hot cup of chocolate, their preferred toppings and cookies provided by NIDC's very own elves and chefs.
The event took place on Saturday, December 17, 2022.
NIDC thanks Santa for carving time from his busy schedule, Assemblywoman Nathalia Fernandez and the Morris Park Association for their partnership. Keep an eye on our website (www.nidcny.org) for more NIDC events.
“It was great to gather as a community during the holiday season to enjoy the movie and warmed hot cocoa. It was the first time in a long time that the season felt so festive. We were so happy to see families enjoy themselves. We even had a great turnout with elected officials. It makes me look forward to the other NIDC events to come in 2023!" - Toni Faiella-Salas, Director for Elementary Programs at NIDC.
