The Best New York Social Clubs For The Young, Creative Elite

National Arts Club

W.H. Auden, Dwight Eisenhower, Uma Thurman.  These are just a few of the many illustrious members who list the National Arts Club among their associations.  Recent years have seen this collection go more contemporary, however, with young creatives from the arts and sectors like advertising creating their own young members' committee. The group is perhaps most infamous for their Naked Ping-Pong Parties, thrown by Madagascarian Prince Franck Raharinosy. Although the nudity is usually kept at a minimum, the events are known for attracting celebrities from all spheres. So, if you like princes, art, and ping-pong, this may be the club for you! National Arts Club, 15 Gramercy Park South. $800ish/year for Young Members. For more information, go HERE. [Photo via]
