The first virtual BOAST: Best of Astoria party is in the books! Thank you to everyone who attended. We learned a lot for next time we do a virtual event (although we hope next year it can be in person). Our gratitude goes to the musicians, Queens community groups and comedians who participated and presented. We hope everyone had a good time.

Congratulations to the raffle winners, who won prizes from The Bonnie, Astoria Performing Arts Center, Astoria Bier & Cheese, and The Thirsty Koala.
