The practice of painting the body with henna has deep cultural roots. For some cultures, the paste kept evil spirits at bay while others used it for beautification or medicinal purposes. On Thursday, November 29 at 7 p.m. at the Tappan Library, Neha Memon, a professional artist from the UK who has years of experience in providing Henna art in the form of modern as well as traditional cultural designs, will offer an introduction to the uses of Mendhi across civilizations. Each guest will experience the process, which lasts for up to three weeks.. Pre-register online at www.taplib.org or call 359-3877 for more info.

I guess better late than never. LaCorte is serving his 4th year as Mayor and was Trustee for I think…Read More 4 years before that. This year is the only time he has brought the idea to the village
about participating in this program. He is motivated by the opportunity of getting positive press for his County Executive
campaign. The village should have been involved in this
program ( as well as the Americorps program) long before
this. On a positive note, hopefully the Village will continue this
worthwhile partnership for many years to come.
