You can dedicate a week in New York City to your special event, cause or industry. A proclamation is a mayoral letter to commemorate special events. The mayor's proclamation will highlight your cause and issues, and potentially get media coverage for your organization and event. You may be able to have the week proclaimed as a special week by filing a proclamation request with the mayor's office. Make a difference in your community and publicize your event with a proclamation from the Mayor's Office of New York City.
