Who are we and what do we do?

Welcome to The American Society of Sydney, Australia!

The American Society of Sydney (AMSOC) was founded in 1922 as a place for Americans living in Sydney to gather, meet, acclimate to life in and around Sydney and celebrate American culture from afar. From then to now, we are still going strong!

Our goal as an organization is to help and support all Americans who have relocated to live and work in Sydney. This web page will give you information on area events and places of interest, news from the consulate, and membership information.

Membership benefits include a monthly newsletter as well as (optional) email announcements about up coming activities. Most AMSOC activities are open, but AMSOC members get bonus discounts and extra information about activities specific to their area.

The American Society strives to maintain these four duties:

1. To serve the social needs of Americans living in the greater Sydney area, whether temporary residents, permanent residents, or dual citizenship.

2. To celebrate American holidays and events, including Independence Day and Thanksgiving.

3. To raise money and awareness or donate time for area charities, as approved by The American Society of Sydney and as allowed by the laws of NSW.

4. To retain the Society's uniquely American character and identity

Again, we welcome you to Sydney and invite you to obtain membership so we can help you to celebrate your unique experience of living abroad!

Our membership includes approximately 70% Americans and American Associates. Members receive our monthly newsletter with a calendar of activities and events.
