FRIDAY NIGHT DINNER:

State Capital Group will hold its Friday Night Reception & Dinner at the Union League Club in New York City. 

Founded in 1863 by a group of concerned citizens to help preserve the Union, members of the Union League Club were instrumental in establishing The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1870. The Club also played an essential role in the founding of the American Red Cross. It helped erect the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor and the Lincoln Monument in Union Square. Its members were instrumental in bringing down the “Boss” Tweed ring and in raising funds to outfit American soldiers in several conflicts. Theodore Roosevelt managed his early political career from the Club’s chambers. J. Pierpont Morgan was a regular, along with John Jay, William Cullen Bryant, Chester A. Arthur, and Thomas Nast. Fifteen Presidents, seven Senators, many Congressmen, diplomats, cabinet members, and scores of chief executive officers of major corporations have been members of the Club during the past hundred and forty years.

Architect Benjamin Wystar Morris (1870-1944) designed the Clubhouse at 37th Street and Park Avenue, property that once belonged to the family of J. P. Morgan. It was completed in 1931. The Club contains 60 bedrooms for members and guests, a variety of meeting rooms for business and social functions, and one of the most extensive club reference and lending libraries in New York City. The Union League is also home to a distinguished art collection and an art gallery with rotating exhibits.

Today, the Union League is a social club providing its members and guests with a quiet sanctuary and relief from the hustle of the city.Members gather cordially for social events, theatre evenings, wine tastings or just to meet friends for a convivial drink at the bar. An active speaker program includes Public Affairs forums which have hosted outstanding speakers on current events since the 1880's as well as library events with notable authors.
