Earlier this year, the NYC Go Family Ambassador Program announced that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles would be taking over as Ambassadors of the city. Since then, it would appear that the program has proven very successful, because they have plans to expand its reach in 2017. In addition to crafting 5 new “See Your City” neighborhood guides, they will also be recording 13 new videos for the NYC Go website. We don’t know if the turtles will be featured in those videos, but we can confirm that they will be included in the neighborhood guides.

Today, we’re happy to share some of the first new artwork tied to their 2017 tourism campaign. To be honest, this is basically just a different variant of the same artwork we’ve already seen, but it’s still pretty nice. In honor of the winter season, they’ve given the turtles some warm clothing to wear as they lead tourists around town. I’m fairly certain that these do not represent what we will see in the five new guides they will be printing next year, so we’ve probably got a lot more to look forward to in the coming months.

Until then, it’s nice to see the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles aren’t letting any cold weather keep them from providing an excellent service for the city they call home. In addition to this new wintry artwork, fans may also be happy to see that the NYC Go website now includes a lot of fun activities. In addition to free TMNT coloring pages, you can also create your own TMNT comic and even have fun with a word search puzzle! Whether you’re traveling to New York City anytime soon or you just want to have fun with some turtley awesome activities, the NYC Family Ambassador Program has proven both successful and entertaining.
