The East Brunswick Friends of the Library's flashiest fundraiser returns! The Bling Sale transforms the library’s meeting rooms will be transformed into a gently-worn jewelry showroom. Items for sale range from costume jewelry to designer pieces, including sterling silver, 14K gold, vintage, precious stones, rings, watches and more.
Wednesday, May 29th, 7:00-8:00 PM
Parents and caregivers of special needs families are invited to a special evening of connection, casual conversation, and coffee!
Please join us to meet other adults whose families may be experiencing some of the same challenges yours is, and meet with library staff who would like input on creating more inclusive opportunities for the special needs community. Light refreshments will be served.
Co-sponsored by the East Brunswick Special Education Parent Advisory Group (SEPAG) and the library.
Magic Mah Jongg by Allisa Perlmutter (a Short Story Contest entry)
The tiles were moved around in an attempt to scramble the winds, dragons and jokers so a new hand could be played. It was a familiar ritual. There is nothing titillating about the game yet it somehow resonates. Like life it is making choices quickly and being able to change course without a flinch. It was just another Mah Jongg Monday. Hoping for a joker to announce my win.
Act Two by Deanna Perlmutter-Tarulli (a Short Story Contest entry)
I sat at my desk waiting for the work day to be over. I had only been at my new job for a few weeks. I felt I needed a career that was more challenging. I had been in the corporate work force for over 30 years, and I knew I was destined for a greater purpose. I am creative. I can perform. Please someone discover me so I can flourish.
Celebration by Brielle O'Neill (a Short Story Contest entry)
My dark ringed eyes open to the stillness of my room. My walls seemed careful, like a child avoiding going to bed, yet they wailed at the calendar; May 15th encircled in bright red ink in a small box. Sofia’s birthday. Elatedly I jumped out of bed, bought a cake, present, and card, and for the rest of the day, my head rested on her headstone. Happy 7th Birthday - Love always, Mom <3
