We had a very special member at our Poetry and Essay Awards Night! Barbara Ostrom, who will be celebrating an incredible 40 years with our Club this May, joined us for the evening. We took a moment to honor her milestone and had her sign our legacy Club tablecloth—such a special memory to cherish!
We had an amazing time celebrating at our 38th Annual Poetry & Essay Awards Night! With so many incredible submissions, our judges had their work cut out for them—especially with the hilariously heartwarming topic, “What happened to you that still makes you laugh when you remember it?” 
The winning students blew us away as they read their essays and poems to a full house of families, teachers, school administrators, and our members. A big congratulations to all our talented winners: Victoria, Arjun, Leah, Anshi, Michelle, Lucy, Tyler, George, Jackson and Vihaan! 
Want to read the winning entries? For a limited time only, they’ll be on display at our library—don’t miss out! 
November was a creative and relaxing month at the Woman’s Club! Our NeuroArt class, led by the talented Lana Stovbun, gave us the perfect opportunity to let our thoughts wander and de-stress while creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind art. A big thank you to Lana for guiding us through this mindful journey!
For October’s spooky season, the Women’s Club had a fantastic day diving into the eerie world of Edgar Allan Poe! Members explored Poe Cottage in the Bronx, where the legendary author spent his final days seeking fresh air and inspiration in what was then the countryside. 
After an insightful tour of his home, no Bronx visit would be complete without a trip to Arthur Avenue! Members wrapped up the day with a delicious meal, enjoying great food and even better company. 
Here’s to more unique adventures and celebrating literary legends together!
Exciting news!
