Free is Fun: Tuesday 6/7 - Sunday 6/12

Ever since I moved to New York, I have enjoyed FREE summer events in New York. When all the brats bus off to the Hamptons, New York is left with its lovers. I usually email out a summer calendar of events, but this year I'll be posting them on my blog to shamelessly gain traffic and so you can check in weekly or whenever you want. These are just a handful of my picks. There are plenty of other free events happening every day in NYC.

What does this have to do with Supper Club? Well the whole idea behind Supper Club is getting people together and challenging them to do stuff. So go out and do something for FREE.
