SUMMARY:March's 31 Days of Raffles supporting the Lewes Library
DESCRIPTION:“Every day in March the library will draw a raffle ticket to win $100 in gift certificates purchased from local businesses. \nWith 31 days in March\, you have 31 chances to win! \nEvery day is a NEW drawing\, so if you do not win one day\, your ticket will remain in the pot and could be drawn the next day. All net proceeds benefit the Library. Tickets may be purchased at the library and select area businesses.” \nThis a super fun raffle BUT the only reason we are able to give away gift certificates to LOCAL BUSINESSES is because those businesses donated the gift certificates to us. RIGHT NOW things are a little uncertain for many of the brick and mortar stores and restaurants that serve our community\, and make it a wonderful place to live. \nPLEASE show these folks some love right now – pick up food to go or order delivery\, buy gift cards online\, shop their website\, and tell your friends\, family\, and neighbors to do the same (but only talk to them from a safe distance!). Below are all the businesses that supported 31 Chances. Even if a local business isn’t on the list\, show them love too. We’re all in this together.” \n*** BREAKING NEWS *** \nThe Library is pleased to announce there will be a special prize drawing on the final day of drawings (March 31).\nThe first name drawn on that day will win a $250 gift card for use at any of the following Highway One Companies: Rusty Rudder\, Northbeach\, Bottle & Cork\, Outlet Liquors\, Ivy\, and Dewey Beach Liquors. \nThe second\, and final\, name drawn will win the GRAND PRIZE of a Dogfish Head Craft Brewery gift box full of Dogfish merchandise and a gift certificate for a two-night stay at Lewes’ Dogfish Inn. This package is worth over $500. \nRAFFLE TICKETS ARE ON SALE!\nStop by the Circulation Desk. Raffle tickets are offered at the following levels: \n\nFEELING LUCKY: 1 ticket for $20\nTRIPLE PLAY: 3 tickets for $50\nLUCKY 7: 7 tickets for $100\n\nLewes Public Library | (302) 645-2733

SUMMARY:Premiere public reading\, "An Angel with Flowers; Broadway Bound in 2017 BC [Before Covid-19]"
DESCRIPTION:The Lewes Public Library Spoken Work Society presents the premiere public reading of a brand new work\, An Angel with Flowers; Broadway Bound in 2017 BC [Before Covid-19] by local playwright Jeffrey Dailey. Set in Lewes\, the play is a two-act tragicomedy following the lives of a couple enjoying retirement in their lovely home located in the beach environs\, contending with a pervasive loneliness and\, yes\, the suppressed consideration of losing life\, one before the other. In other words\, whose death will then end their longstanding relationship? It is that loneliness that stirs Donald Angel and John Flowers to seemingly pluck a nice young fellow – an artist\, to boot — out of life’s hustle and bustle and into by contrast\, their provincial lives. And\, never mind the young gent having appeared to them in a dream – a ruse\, perhaps? This is the foundation from which the play launches into broader and more abstract themes. Art and Nature and the creative process are pitted against lies and concealments both small and ‘huge’ and certainly they are consequential; consequential indeed\, to the point of propelling the play well beyond its limited\, local geography and on to realms of national and international security concerns.\nPlaywright Jeffrey Dailey’s pieces have garnered attention both in D.C. and in NYC. His piece Winter and Summer in May was given a reading and a workshop with “New Playwrights of D.C.” and was held under contract at NYC’s Circle in the Square. His one-act plays Pola and Max\, Bus 2021\, and Barnaby & Newnipurr have been used many times for acting workshops at the Herbert Berghof studio in Greenwich Village in NYC. \n“An Angel with Flowers; Broadway Bound in 2017 BC [Before Covid-19]\nFriday\, February 25 | 7:00 PM Eastern Time | In-person \nThis is a workshop performance\, meaning Mr. Dailey is seeking commentary on the piece as he develops it for professional production. Following the reading\, Mr. Dailey will be on hand to hear your commentary\, speak on the creative process\, to answer questions.”\n\n  \nCopy and pics from the website: DE Libraries

SUMMARY:Spanish Conversation Group\, Lewes Library
DESCRIPTION:“Join Spanish speakers 18+ to improve your Spanish-speaking skills. \nBasic Spanish conversational ability is required. \nNOTE: this is not a traditional class — there is no Spanish teacher.

Lectures\, workshops\, author presentations and performances. Children’s programming\, book clubs – and even a financial education series. The library’s calendar is almost overwhelming.  \nHere\, we focus on the Lewes Library’s Performance Series\, the Spoken Word Society and Shakespeare Festival. Don’t let the Shakespeare reference fool you – it’s symbolic for the most part\, although there are some events that involve Shakespeare readings and performances. As for the spoken word\, literary works are performed and discussed\, bringing stories to life.  \nThese events are free\, but reservations are required for certain programs\, so it’s wise to do a little browsing on the library’s web site to be sure.  \nOTHER UPCOMING PERFORMANCES for the remainder of 2021 include the following.  \nMary Shelley’s “Transformation”: Saturday\, October 30 | 7:00 PM Eastern Time | In-person  \nJust in time for Halloween\, Shelley’s macabre and sinister short story\, Transformation is read by Dr. James Keegan. Discussion to follow reading.  \nArs Shakespearica: The Art of Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet: Monday\, November 8 | 6:00 PM Eastern Time | In-person  \nSure to be one of the most sought after reservations\, this unique performance by Tony Award actor Donald Hicken goes a step further.
