The Bronxville Women's Club was founded as an educational and philanthropic organization. When the present building was built in 1928, the vision was a community center to be enjoyed by everyone. We invite everyone to come out and enjoy Shakespeare's fantasy "A Midsummer Night's Dream" under the stars (or inside if it rains) this weekend.
Don't forget the FREE Outdoor Concert that the Bronxville Chamber of Commerce is hosting tonight--Monday, July 30--at 6:30 pm on Park Place. The street will be closed off starting at 5:00 pm to make way for tables in the street and the band Plan B! Food will be available for purchase from Park Place eateries. Sponsored by Pete's Park Place Tavern and Stanley M. Stern/Stern Park, LLC. This event was rescheduled from July 26, when the concert was called off on account of severe weather. Come join the fun!
