Esperanto Conversation Meetup in Midtown · Beginners and All Levels Welcome

About this event

### Esperanto Conversation Meetup in Midtown · Beginners and All Levels Welcome Join the Esperanto Society of New York for an informal Saturday afternoon of Esperanto conversation in Midtown Manhattan. **Tomaso Eccardt will host this gathering** while Miko is away. This time we will meet in the **covered section of Avenue 6½ between West 51st and West 52nd Streets**. Because the passage is covered, rain should not be a problem. What is Avenue 6½? It is a pedestrian passage running parallel to, and between, Sixth and Seventh Avenues. We will meet near **Aldo Sohm Wine Bar**. Aldo Sohm has tables in the passage, and attendees may order nonalcoholic drinks there. If those tables are unavailable, we can gather on the nearby public seating. As always, this is a casual gathering rather than a formal class. Experienced Esperanto speakers, learners, and complete beginners are welcome. Come practice Esperanto, listen, ask questions, or simply spend some time with other people interested in the language. **Saturday, August 22, 2026** **12:30 PM** **Meeting area:** Avenue 6½, between West 51st and West 52nd Streets **Address to use for navigation:** Aldo Sohm Wine Bar 151 W 51st St New York, NY 10019 **Important:** We are meeting **outside in the covered pedestrian passage**, not inside the wine bar. ### Subway **R** to 49th Street **E or C** to 7th Avenue **1** to 50th Street Look for the Esperanto flag, Esperanto books, and Tomaso. All levels are welcome, and friends are welcome too.
