Have you made your plans and purchases for Mother’s Day? Here are a few ideas for Sunday, May 10, including fashion, jewelry, accessories, reading materials, streaming entertainment, and charitable donations in mom’s name, too.
Weather
The National Weather Service predicts it’s going to be sunny with a high near 58 on Mother’s Day. If you decide to go about and about and get some fresh air, remember to stay safely and socially distant from everyone else who is also walking, hiking, and bicycling.
Broadway and Beyond
It might be a while until you can see a show on Broadway, but thanks to Composer/Producer Neil Berg and Broadway performer Rita Harvey, you can enjoy some of the best tunes from the Great White Way during “Broadway and Beyond” on Facebook Live on Mother’s Day beginning at 7p.
“Honoring the mothers and caretakers in our lives with a free concert is just one way we can honor all they do,” Berg told Broadway World. “Especially mothers who are essential workers and may be away from their families during this time to go to work at our hospitals or other essential locations.” Point your browser to TinyUrl.com/bergharvey to catch the show on Sunday.
Charity
Show mom that you care for her and for your community with a donation in her name to local charities that are making a difference like Nyack Nourishes, Rockland’s food pantry People to People, The Nyack Center, and the Center for Safety and Change.
