Call a non-static class with a console application

Question

I'm trying to call a method from another class with a console application. The class I try to call isn't static.

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Program p = new Program();
        var myString = p.NonStaticMethod();
    }

    public string NonStaticMethod()
    {
        return MyNewClass.MyStringMethod(); //Cannot call non static method
    }
}

class MyNewClass
{
    public string MyStringMethod()
    {
        return "method called";
    }
}

I get the error:

Cannot access non-static method "MyStringMethod" in a static context.

This works if I move the MyStringMethod to the class program. How could I succeed in doing this? I cannot make the class static nor the method.

Just like you create an instance of the Program class to call the NonStaticMethod, you must create an instance of MyNewClass:

public string NonStaticMethod()
{
    var instance = new MyNewClass();
    return instance.MyStringMethod(); //Can call non static method
}
