As a gamer with a rich history of attending various events and conventions, I can appreciate the Academy‘s thoughtful approach to creating a welcoming and secure environment for all its members. The decision to postpone the New York reception, particularly on the first anniversary of a sensitive issue such as the Hamas attacks on Israel, shows an admirable sensitivity towards potential concerns and discomfort among attendees.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has decided to reschedule a welcome event for new members in New York from October 7, which coincides with the first anniversary of Hamas’ attacks on Israel, to a later date this year, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The Academy emphasized in a letter to its members that making everybody feel at ease and safe during our events is crucial for us to warmly greet our fresh members, especially considering some apprehensions regarding the suitability and safety of the initial event date expressed by certain individuals.
Over the past week, the Academy hosted popular gatherings welcoming new members in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Coming up next week, they plan to do the same for their new members in the United Kingdom.
The full text of the email from the Academy to its members appears below.
Hi there!
As a gamer, I’m excited to meet plenty of you at our forthcoming London New Members Gathering! Keep an eye on the updates for the fresh date in New York.
We look forward to seeing you all very soon.
The Academy
