14 Arrandale Avenue, Great Neck, NY, USA

A social skills class for children, teens and young adults of all abilities, hosted through the Great Neck Park District.
This is the first of 8 classes. Each one teaches a single skill and then gives everyone a chance to practice it: starting a conversation, reading social cues, joining a group, making a friend. Instruction happens in small groups, and there's a game built into every session so practice happens while people are actually enjoying themselves.

Call or text (516) 287-1628, or email GreatNeckSocialSkills@gmail.com to reserve a spot or ask a question.

North Shore Towers Cinema

The 16th Annual Gold Coast Int'l Film Festival&nbsp;opens with Pierre Monnard's heartwarming dramedy HELLO BETTY - the inspiring true story of Emmi Creola, the visionary advertising pioneer behind Switzerland’s most beloved culinary icon.&nbsp;
Set in 1956 Zurich, the film tells the true story of Emmi Creola (played by Sarah Spale), a talented copywriter who invents the fictional housewife "Betty Bossi" to promote a client's food products in a male-dominated workplace. Betty Bossi eventually becomes a massive national culinary icon, thrusting an overwhelmed Emmi into the public spotlight.
Her newfound fame is exhilarating – but also exhausting. The pressure mounts as Emmi finds herself increasingly torn between the demands of her career and her family.

From petticoats to the Cold War, HELLO BETTY oﬀers a colorful, touching portrait of the 50‘s, told with warmth and gentle humor – and at the same time, tells a story that still feels very familiar to many women today.
OFFICIAL SELECTION: Palm Springs International Film Festival

Gold Coast Int'l Film Festival asks what happens when a magician's tricks are stolen? Join GCIFF for this illuminating documentary and Q&amp;A with director and Great Neck High School Alum and native Matthew Testa following the screening.
STEALING MAGIC is a true-crime international caper filled with possible espionage, blackmail, cyberattacks and more. Magician Andi Gladwin becomes an unlikely citizen detective for the world of magic when he discovers that an anonymous online source is stealing and selling his fellow illusionists’ tricks, taking him down a rabbit hole that sees him and his ragtag crew of justice-seekers on an exciting global hunt for answers as they search for the internet pirates ruining their businesses.
This documentary is a surprising ride that fully exemplifies the old adage: the truth is stranger than fiction and, to boot, quite entertaining.
"One of the best films of this year's Tribeca Film Festival.”&nbsp;-&nbsp;Rolling Stone
Directed and produced by GREAT NECK natives&nbsp;MATTHEW TESTA and&nbsp;ETHAN SMITH!
