These pantries depend on the support of donations from people like you! Come together with your community for a monthly food drive to stock four of the pantries. This drive will support the LFPs located at 10 New Jersey Avenue, Flemington DIY (26 Stangl Road), Flemington Presbyterian (10 East Main Street), and Echelon Studio’s Personal Hygiene Pantry (27 Fulper Road).

Songwriter Circle
2024-09-10 19:00 - 21:00
Hey, songwriters: Do you have songs that are half finished? Lyrics you’re not entirely happy with? A songwriting circle is not a performance. It’s an opportunity to connect with other songwriters, play your song idea for us – whether it’s fully formed or not – and receive gentle, respectful, and constructive feedback. All genres welcome! Please bring a few hard copies of your lyrics to share (they’ll be returned to you). We have a piano available. Donations at the door
