Alumni Reconnect through Virtual Events
Developing lifelong bonds and staying connected after graduation are hallmarks of the Newark Academy experience. This was evident more than ever during the 2020-21 school year as NA alumni strengthened their relationships with each other through events that took place throughout the entire year, despite COVID-19 restrictions.
Through support from the Annual Fund, Director of Alumni Relations Evan Nisenson ’99 hosted 12 virtual events that brought the NA community together across the globe. The events ranged from a variety of workshops and a mixology class to a playwriting festival and inspiring panel discussions. The year’s full list of events included:
- Mindfulness, Meditation and Metacognition: A Conversation with Former NA teacher Joe Ball
- Resume Building Workshop led by Pamela Vichengrad '94
- Creative Writing Workshop with Ben Purkert '03
- 24-Minute Playwriting Festival with former NA teacher Scott M. Jacoby
- Virtual Reunion
- The Winning Streak: A Panel Discussion Featuring Ben Cohen's '06 book, “The Hot Hand” and NA Alumni Athletes.
- Young Alumni Virtual Mixology Class
- True Colors: Art as a Form of Expression
- Virtual Networking Night
- Valentine's Day Mixology Event
- She Knew She Could: Women's History Month Alumni Panel
- What Healing Means: A Spoken Word Event
To stay informed about upcoming alumni events and opportunities in your area and online, update your current contact information in NA Connect.
