On Monday September 9, 2013, POV celebrated the PBS national broadcast premiere of Ping Pong, with a Premiere Party at SPiN New York. Co-owned by Academy Award-winning actress Susan Sarandon, SPiN was the perfect place for us to sip on cocktails, eat, and meet old and new friends, and watch the broadcast.

After the screening, POV staff and guests had a great time playing ping pong at the club. We want to give SPiN a big thank you for providing a dynamic space to host Ping Pong’s premiere, and for continuing to give it’s community a platform to play and connect.

Check out photos from the event:
