for Museum and Library Service Finalist
Join NJ4S Middlesex and celebrate the amazing women who inspire you! In recognition of Women's History Month, we'll highlight a powerful woman in your life and share why she's made an impact. Whether it's a mentor, a friend, or a role model, let's come together to honor the strength, resilience, and everything else women do to make the world a better place. Freebies, activities, and resources will be provided.
Join the staff of NJ4S to create your own self-care flower and fortune teller! All supplies are provided and light snacks will be served.
For families with kids in kindergarten and up.
