The Circle of Friends for the NSU Alvin Sherman Library, Research and Information Technology Center recently hosted its Annual Gala and Fundraiser.
The evening began with over 60 attendees enjoying cocktails and appetizers, followed by a buffet dinner. Guests were treated to a performance of Dueling Pianos with Fun Pianos! By 176 Keys. A variety of hits were played; the oldies, the classics, and all the favorite requests, for two hours of toe-tapping, foot stomping, hard-rockin’ sing and dance along fun. Proceeds raised from the evening help fund resources for the Alvin Sherman Library.
Underwriting was generously provided by Southern Glazers Wine & Spirits Charitable Fund, Gold Coast Marine Distributor, Dr. Robert and Janet Speth, Peter and Fran Woolf, Samuel F. Morrison, C. Davis Electric, Mike and Laura Simmons & Port Consolidated, Crawford-Tracey Corporation, Adolfo & Marisela Cotilla & ACAI Associates, Inc., Levenson, Katzin and Ballotta, P.A., Dr. Robert and Ronnie Oller, Kevin and Joanne Barrett, and Dr. Robert and Kitty Preziosi, Luis and Elizabeth Muriel, Suzete Ellis, Dr. and Mrs. Anthony Silvagni, Tom Zimmerman and finally Hoffman’s Chocolates, provided a sweet ending to a fun evening; delicious chocolate covered Oreo favors.
The Circle of Friends is a diverse group of individuals who share the common goal of furthering the intellectual resources of the Alvin Sherman Library. As a result of an innovative agreement between NSU and the Broward County Board of County Commissioners, the Alvin Sherman Library is a unique joint-use facility. This means that anyone who lives or works in Broward County is eligible to have a library card and to access the five-story Library, Research, and Information Technology Center.
