Sat, May 23, 3:00 PM

From In-Person Tech Events NYC 2026

Tickets: $45.25 ( incl. $5.25 fees ) (advance registration required) Click the link below to officially register for this experience: [https://www.nyadventureclub.com/event/1988189193398](https://www.nyadventureclub.com/event/1988189193398) In the early 20th century, the Woolworth Building in downtown Manhattan not only dominated the NYC skyline, but also held the title of "tallest building in the world" for over 17 years. What secrets lie behind its towering limestone and terracotta façade? Now’s your chance to step inside one of New York’s most breathtaking interiors — a hidden architectural marvel that's been off-limits to the public since 2020 (until now). Join [New York Adventure Club](http://www.nyadventureclub.com "http://www.nyadventureclub.com") for an **exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the Woolworth Building** — commissioned by retail magnate Frank Woolworth in 1910 to house his company’s corporate headquarters, this neo-Gothic style skyscraper designed by architect Cass Gilbert laid claim to the world’s tallest building from its opening in 1913 until 1930. Led by licensed NYC tour guides and Woolworth Building experts Bob Gelber or Ed Welter, this official experience — **and the only way inside this private building** — will include: * **The story behind the “Cathedral of Commerce,”** from its creation by retail magnate F.W. Woolworth to its groundbreaking design by Cass Gilbert * **A look at the exterior’s intricate terracotta façade**, rich with neo-Gothic ornamentation and symbolic details * **A private tour of the soaring lobby**, with its marble-clad walls, vaulted ceilings, and hidden symbols embedded in the architecture * **A visit to the subterranean vault**, where the building’s original safe deposit boxes are tucked beneath its towering frame * **A special trip to the mezzanine balcony**, offering a close-up view of the vaulted mosaic ceiling, richly inspired by the opulence and patterns of the Byzantine Empire See you there! \*There are no public restrooms on the tour, so please plan accordingly \*\*This tour is limited to the lobby and first sub-level \*\*\*Please refrain from wandering around the lobby before, during, or after the tour **About Bob** After retiring from the New York State Court System, Bob Gelber became a licensed New York City tour guide to share his deep knowledge and passion for his hometown. Over the past twelve years, he has led visitors through neighborhoods many tourists overlook, while also serving as a docent at the Woolworth Building and volunteering at both the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Open House New York. A longtime member of the Guides Association of New York City, Bob has served on its Board of Directors and several key committees. From Central Park to the Lower East Side — and even chocolate-themed walks through SoHo — Bob brings history to life with every step. **About Ed** With over four decades of experience in construction and nearly 15 years in the tourism world, Ed Welter brings a unique perspective to New York City's built environment. After starting his guiding career at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in 2010, Ed went on to become a senior docent and trainer at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, where he has been sharing the site’s powerful story since its earliest days. A licensed NYC tour guide since 2012, Ed also led Woolworth Building tours from 2014 until their pause in 2020 — and is excited to return as the tour program resumes with New York Adventure Club. His deep knowledge and passion have guided countless tours across Lower Manhattan, from the Brooklyn Bridge to City Hall Park, including topics like the Five Points, the African Burial Grounds, and the history of terrorism in New York. **Testimonials** "The tour of the lobby was full of secrets and mysteries and astonishing design.

Scaling Accessibility with Design Systems

Tue, Jun 2, 11:30 PM

From A11yNYC - Accessibility New York City

From PhotoManhattan - Photography classes NYC & Free Exhibits

This event will be online on [YouTube](https://youtu.be/_4k16DgOUMA) and in-person (New York City). **The speaker and live stream starts at 7:30 pm ET**. In-person attendees may arrive as early as 7 pm ET. If arriving late, please leave a comment on this page and someone will come down ASAP. **Description** Twenty million New Yorkers. Forty-five agencies. Tens of thousands of web pages, forms, and applications. What does it take to scale accessibility across an entire state? Jesse Gardner leads the Design System and Accessibility teams for the State of New York. He'll share what his teams have learned about scaling accessibility: resources and education to grow team maturity over time, manual accessibility reviews as a service, and a shared design infrastructure with built-in accessibility. He'll spend most of the talk on the design system. It's already helping teams scale accessible design, and it's increasingly serving as a foundation for accessibility in AI-assisted code-generation. This talk is for the full A11yNYC community: engineers, designers, advocates, content strategists, lawyers, librarians, researchers, and anyone who wants to understand where accessibility is headed in the next few years. Topics include: * Why a design system is one of the highest-leverage accessibility investments any organization can make * A live, plain-language demonstration of how AI tools interact with this kind of shared guidance (you don't need knowledge to follow along) * Why AI tools often produce inaccessible work, and what it looks like when you give them clear instructions and accessible building blocks * Honest lessons from coordinating accessibility work across the state * Practical advice for any accessibility program, no matter the size or budget Attendees will gain: * A real-world perspective from large-scale government services * Practical examples for scaling accessibility beyond "just work harder" * Guidance for harnessing AI to ensure accessible output **Presenter bio** [Jesse Gardner](https://www.linkedin.com/in/plasticmind/) is Director of Accessibility and Design Systems at the New York State Office of Information Technology Services, where he leads two teams serving more than 45 state agencies and 20 million New Yorkers. He built the New York State Design System from scratch and led the state's response to the DOJ Title II accessibility compliance deadline (recently extended to April 2027). Before joining the public sector, Jesse spent more than two decades in software engineering and design leadership. He speaks regularly on the intersection of design systems, accessibility, and AI (most recently at Into Design Systems 2026) and writes at plasticmind.com. He lives in upstate New York with his wife and four kids. **Accessibility** The presentation will have human captions [CC], not automatic captions. For ASL preferred speakers, learn about the [Aira ASL App](https://aira.io/aira-asl-app/), and download it before the event. For the Blind and Low Vision community, learn about the [Aira Explorer App](https://aira.io/aira-explorer-app/) and download it before the event. To access the online webinar for audio description, use the A11yNYC Access Offer to call, or simply inform your Visual Interpreter that you'd like that offer applied when you connect. For additional accessibility requirements, please email meryl@equalentry.com **two weeks** **before** the event. **Livestream** [YouTube link](https://youtu.be/_4k16DgOUMA) Provided by Internet Society Accessibility SIG. **Location details** The event is on the 4th floor. Everyone must be accompanied to the event on the 4th floor. Because everyone needs to be escorted, please arrive early or on time. When you enter the ground floor, a representative from A11yNYC will be there to provide elevator access. The building is near several transit stops: 6 train * Spring Street (non-accessible stop): 100 feet * Canal Street (accessible stop): 0.4 miles B/D/F/M * Broadway-Lafayette St., 0.2 miles NQRW trains * Prince Street (non-accessible stop): 0.2 miles * Canal Street (accessible stop): 0.3 miles M1 / M55 Bus lines * Broadway/Spring Street stop: 500 feet Cabs and rideshares can let passengers out right near the building entrance **Important note** Google Maps currently incorrectly pins the location around the corner on Crosby Street.

How Service Design Can Help with Deep Wounds & Healing

Tue, May 19, 10:00 PM

**Tuesday, May 19th - 6:00-8:00 PM EDT** **Presentation** How Service Design Can Help with Deep Wounds & Healing **Event Description** As the world grows more complex, individuals and organizations are navigating greater uncertainty, rapid change, and increasing emotional strain. Building resilience in this environment requires more than external problem-solving–it calls for deeper personal reflection and attention to mental health. This talk draws from a personal journey through grief and burnout, uncovering parallels between service design methods and therapeutic frameworks. When we face significant life events resulting in trauma to our system, the process of stabilizing and healing can feel unfamiliar, messy, emotional, and difficult to make sense of. But, as service designers, we're uniquely suited to tackle whatever life throws at us. The same skills used to understand systems, map journeys, and navigate ambiguity at work can also support how we process our own experiences alongside a licensed professional. This talk explores how service designers can recognize and engage with therapeutic approaches that mirror their existing toolkit. By asking more informed questions and working with a therapist to apply familiar frameworks in new ways, service designers can better understand their own behavioral patterns, make meaning of their lived experiences, and move through difficult chapters with greater structure, awareness, and support. **About Our Speaker** **Natalie Kuhn** Natalie Kuhn is founder of [Here with the Herd](https://herewiththeherd.com/), offering experiential learning for people with horses as well as Co-Founder of the global retreat company VAYRAH Experience. Previously she was a Senior Director of Design at Capital One, design leader at Meta within Data Privacy, and spent years as a Lead Service Designer at FJORD within Accenture Interactive. Natalie brings almost 20 years in human-centered design and research. She co-ran the SDN New York Chapter for 5 years in which the chapter won an award for innovative events on a global stage, and was accredited by SDN as a Service Design Master back in 2021. **Agenda** * 6:00-6:30PM Meet & mingle over food and drink * 6:30-7:30PM Presentation & Demo * 7:30-8:00PM Discussion & Networking * 8:00PM - ? After-Party **Address** Intuit 51 Astor Place New York, NY 10003 **After-Party**: Cuna Bar The Standard 25 Cooper Sq **Financial Transparency & Scholarships** As a non-profit, we do our best to strike a balance between making our events available to all and ensuring we keep the lights on. For this event, we are charging $10. * If this amount is prohibitive for you to attend this event, please message [Barry](https://www.meetup.com/sdnnyc/members/267573171/) on Meetup and we’ll provide you a scholarship to this event.

FOCUSED TOPIC: Storefronts, Signs, & Facades

Wed, May 27, 4:00 PM

From In-Person Tech Events NYC 2026

## Details ***THIS IS THE SAME EVENT AS THE ONE POSTED ON "Practice Photography."*** On this photo walk we are going to focus and limit our photos to storefronts, their signage, and older building facades, covering the neighborhoods of the East Village, Gramercy Park, & on up to Kips Bay.

Following our Meetup photo walk we can post our photos to the Meetup photo album. We ask that you limit your postings to 5 of your best images to the album. **This is one of the first of some focused walks to come, and the intention is that those photographers who would like to, can concentrate on creating specific photography with a few, real time constraints rather than just shoot anything & everything.** And you can still take anything you desire along the walk, but our *Meetup album will be accepting only 5 photos of these 3 subjects.* Looking forward to some creative photo fun together. **LOCATION** We'll meet at the NorthWest intersection (corner) of 2nd Ave. & E.Houston St. next door to Avalon Chemists at #7 This is at the NYC "F" train subway stop portal exit. Most direct to ways to meeting point are the MTA NYC "M15" bus which runs south on 2nd Ave & the "F" train. **ALL WELCOME** **Beginners to Professionals** with Digital Cameras, Smartphone Cameras, Vid Cams, or No Cams/Just Discerning Eyes **CONTACT** Through [[Meetup.com](http://meetup.com/)]([http://meetup.com/](http://meetup.com/)) site or [[ArtFrame24@gmail.com](mailto:ArtFrame24@gmail.com)]([mailto:ArtFrame24@gmail.com](http://mailto:ArtFrame24@gmail.com/)) **RESTROOMS** Ottendorfer Public Library at 135 2nd Ave. Also, Grand Central Terminal & Penn Station have facilities. **RAIN DATE** Stay tuned for any weather update closer to the event day.
