The Council serves as an advisory board for the homemaker units which exist in Suffolk County and publishes a “Council Connection” newsletter, grants scholarships, gives workshops, provides guest speakers and teaches craft and cooking classes.  Photo courtesy of Councilwoman Bonner’s office

FOR THE LOVE OF A GOOD BOOK

Long Island LitFest presented an evening with Jodi Picoult at the Suffolk County Vanderbilt Museum in Centerport on Aug. 20. The sold-out event, which was moderated by Broadway star Arielle Jacobs, drew hundreds of excited fans to the courtyard at the Eagle’s Nest mansion to hear the bestselling author talk about her latest book, By Any Other Name. Between the autographed books and photos with Picoult, everyone left with a smile. Pictured above, author Jodi Picoult (left) and moderator Arielle Jacobs with fans.
