Mission

The New York Heroes Society celebrates human achievement and stature, consistent with Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism, through lectures, physical activities, and
cultural events for all who worship heroism and aspire to it
in their own lives.

Activities

All activities of the NY Heroes Society, except where noted otherwise, are made possible by donations. Your contributions are cherished and will help make New York an even more heroic city.
More information.

Web site
The NY Heroes web site (nyheroes.org) will be the central point of communication for the organization. Event announcements, editorials, news, reviews, etc. will be published regularly. In the near future the NY Heroes site will be expanded to include a participation section where individuals can interact with one another on ideas and events of interest to hero-worshippers.

Lectures
Lectures will feature accomplished intellectuals, athletes, businessmen, and other individuals speaking on topics such as current events, history, politics, business, philosophy, etc. Heroes and heroism will figure largely in many of these presentations.

Tours
Guided tours of museums, architecture, historic sites and other points of interest will be organized by NY Heroes and its affiliates.

Outings
Outings will provide opportunities for the intellectually active to activate their bodies, an important part of a well-rounded life. A range of activities will be offered: from minimally strenuous city walks; to weekend sports such as softball; to highly demanding pursuits such as rock-climbing. All participants are required to sign a waiver prior to undertaking an activity with the group.
