If, as the old advertising line said, “You Don’t Have to be Jewish to Love Levy’s,” then you certainly don’t have to be Irish to love the songs and stories of Ireland, especially when they’re presented by Jim Hawkins as a run up to St. Patrick’s Day.
On Friday, March 5 at 7 p.m. via Zoom, Mr. Hawkins, a long-time performer of the Gaelic arts, will present a program of Irish folktales, songs, myths and legends, as well as his recollections about growing up in Ireland and the Irish community of New York City.

The staff of the Shelter Island Public Library spent most of 2020 weathering the daunting challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.
Special presentations and meetings were all moved online, and access to the library building was curtailed until recently. But just as this difficult year came to a close, Library Director Terry Lucas received some very welcome news.
The Library was awarded a $20,000 grant from the Banyan Tree Roots Foundation to upgrade or replace outdated computer equipment and fund programs.
