SUMMARY:American Ethical Union 111th Assembly at Ethical NYC
DESCRIPTION:The American Ethical Union is proud to announce the 111th Assembly – 150 Years of Eliciting the Best – on the sesquicentennial year of the Ethical Culture Movement. Our Movement’s founding Society\, The New York Society for Ethical Culture\, is looking forward to hosting our gathering in New York City. We encourage all Ethical Culture members and friends to join us in exploring “150 Years of Eliciting the Best: Then\, Now and Always.” \nRegistration for the assembly will be released by April 1st\, 2026\, but please see a DRAFT of the 111th AEU Assembly Schedule HERE for planning purposes. \nWhat: 111th American Ethical Union Assembly\nWhen: July 24-26\, 2026\nWhere: New York Society for Ethical Culture\, 2 W. 64th Street\, New York\, NY 10023 \n>>>Register Here\nAccommodation Options\nWe encourage those who are thinking about attending the assembly to book their accommodations early\, as NYC in the summer is busy and as lodgings become more scarce\, the prices do go up. Feel free to book on your own as there are many options\, but below are four that have been vetted to consider: \nEmpire Hotel\, 44 W. 63rd Street\, New York\, NY 10023\nWe have secured a block of rooms at this hotel\, with group pricing guaranteed until June 12th\, 2026. This is the most expensive option but has the most amenities and is right around the corner from the New York Society for Ethical Culture. If you would like to learn more and/or make a reservation use the Empire Hotel Group link: HERE. \nLaQuinta Hotel\, 31 W. 71st Street\, New York\, NY 10023\nAlthough we could not secure a block of rooms\, this hotel is moderately priced for NYC and is only a few blocks away from the New York Society for Ethical Culture. You can learn more or directly book a reservation by using the link: HERE. \nWest Side YMCA\, 5 W. 63rd Street\, New York\, NY 10023\nWe have secured a block of rooms at this hotel\, with group pricing guaranteed until May 26\, 2026. This option is directly next to New York Society for Ethical Culture. Although this is the most affordable option\, it does have the least number of amenities. Please note the following room options: a private single room and ensuite bathroom ($170 per night)\, a private single room but a shared bathroom down the hall ($140 per night) and a bunk bed for two and ensuite bathroom ($190 per night).

Activity options will be shared in the coming weeks.  Planned activities include: Tour of Lincoln Center\, an Ethical NYC Bike Tour\, Circle Line Boat Tour\, and a Broadway Show. \nInterested in Presenting a Program?\nThe AEU Assembly Planning Committee is accepting program proposals. Based on feedback from past assemblies\, we are keeping programs focused on the theme: “150 Years of Eliciting the Best: Then\, Now\, and Always.” Proposals are due by April 30\, 2026. Each session is 45 minutes (this includes Q&A) and will take place Saturday\, July 25 at the New York Society for Ethical Culture.
