On Sunday, November 6, Neve Shalom will be celebrating Jewish Book Month by hosting a special tea party for children, both young and old, and their favorite doll. This enjoyable afternoon will be filled with things to do for children from 5 and over.  While enjoying light refreshments, guests will learn about Rebecca Rubin, an American Girl® historic character, who grew up on New York City’s Lower East Side in 1914, during the peak of America’s immigration period. Some of the other exciting activities include: jewelry crafting for the child (and their doll), a fashion parade starring all of the children and their companion, and sensational photos (with props) will be taken. The fun does not stop there: the afternoon will also include other games, prizes, and more! This event is open to the entire community. Come and join us for this outstanding program, and bring a friend.

The event will be held on November 6, 2016 from 12 noon to 2 PM at the Neve Shalom Ballroom, located at 250 Grove Avenue in Metuchen, NJ.  There will be a fee of $25 which will include all of the activities, and light refreshments, for each child, their doll, and one parent or guardian.  Siblings can also join in the fun for an additional $10. Advance registration is required by filling out a form located at https://www.neveshalom.net/event/an-american-girl-tea-party.html by October 15th.  Seating is limited, so register early to guarantee that you, your child, and their favorite doll, will be able to take part in this unique experience.
