Please join Marc Mathelier as he takes you on a romantic musical voyage celebrating love, life and music!  Having begun to play guitar at age 11, Marc has become a versatile and avid musician with a repertoire ranging from Baroque to Fusion-Alternative, New Age to Easy Listening and Classical to Jazz Standards on nylon strings guitar.

This program is made possible by a generous gift from Glenn P. and Susan D. Dickes to the AWPL Foundation.

Irving Berlin’s music does not have the rhythmic or harmonic complexities of a Gershwin tune nor the sly naughtiness of a Cole Porter hit.  His shows are no longer the staple of high school and community productions in the same way Rodgers and Hammerstein plays live on.

Join Circle of Voices, a Poetry Discussion where we sonnet-speak the poetry of William Shakespeare. Help celebrate the Bard’s birthday by reading a sonnet or monologue and then enjoy a lively discussion with the group.  Reading a piece aloud is not a requirement to attend.

Hosted by Laurie Byrowho has been leading poetry discussion groups in northern NJ for over 20 years.

 
Copies of sonnets available at the Reference Desk.

Join Mary Shields and Cheryl Ferguson for a creative evening of Valentine crafts!  Create cards, gift bags & tags and bookmarks, using ink stamps and paper crafting techniques.  All materials will be provided.

Particularly pertinent in an era of heightened politics, TEA FOR THREE humanizes the political scene with a story both whimsical and deeply moving:  a behind-the-scenes look at Lady Bird Johnson, Pat Nixon and Betty Ford.  Share the journey of each as she deals with the fishbowl of First Ladydom.

This video shows how the process works and why it’s important…especially today.  Sexual abuse, bullying, PTSD.  Here’s how horses can help. The Foundation offers an effective alternative to traditional therapies. Its services are available at low or no cost to those suffering from PTSD and other severe traumas.

Scandal abounds in Shakespeare’s hilarious, biting comedy about lies, courtship and the chaos created in pursuit of true love. The famous bantering lovers, Benedick and Beatrice, trade barbs while matching wits (and hearts) in this celebrated romantic romp!
