International Day of Friendship!

International Day of Friendship  is celebrated around the world, as  countries partake in a variety of events to promote peace and unity. Nearly one million Brooklynites were born abroad and 47% of us speak a language other than English at home. Brooklyn is the perfect place to celebrate diversity and culture!
