Hello PJ Families!
 
I hope you all enjoyed celebrating Chanukah with us at the library and the wonderful Chanukah Celebration and candle lighting at Mercato! It was so great seeing your families.
 
Coming up this month, we will be walking with the Jewish Federation of Greater Naples in the Martin Luther King Jr. Parade at Cambier Park. We will meet at 10:00 AM and walk at 11:00 AM. It is a family friendly, free event and everyone is invited to walk with us on Monday, January 15. Please register at https://jfgn.regfox.com/mlk-jr-parade

On January 21st, we will be having a Tu B’Shevat event for our families at 4:00-5:00 PM at the Nina Iser Jewish Cultural Center. Come plant parsley for Passover, enjoy snacks, crafts, nature bingo, bubbles, stories, and friends! Please send an email to programs@jewishnaples.org and let me know that you can join us.
 
Please be sure to follow PJ Library - Federation of Greater Naples on Facebook and @naplespjlibrary on Instagram for upcoming events and up to date info on all things local for PJ Library. 

Shalom,
Amber Ferren
Coordinator for PJ Library & PJ Our Way
JANUARY FAMILY EVENT FOR YOU
  • PJ Our Way kids have until the 10th of the month to log in and choose their next middle-grade book or graphic novel.

  • January 25 marks Tu B’Shevat, sometimes known as “the birthday of the trees.” Visit PJ Library’s Tu B’Shevat Hub for family nature projects, tree story suggestions, and instructions for holding a tasty traditional Tu B’Shevat seder.

  • Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday is a great reminder of the fundamental Jewish value known as tikkun olam, or “repairing the world.” See PJ Library’s blog for acts of tikkun olam you can do, and helping to repair your own community together.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO OUR GENEROUS DONORS

  • Jewish Federation of Greater Naples
  • Irene Adler
