Havemeyer Sugar Sweets Festival

I'm posting a press release here because the guy asked very, very nicely.  The friend of a friend actually went to the trouble of reading my latest blog post and spelling my name right.  In fact, I know nothing about the cause and I'm only posting to spite all of those PR people who spam me with irrelevant crap.  I'd donate some sweets myself if I were going to be in town, but I'm not going to.  My cardamom buns, which I must write up for you when I have a free moment NEVER, would totally win.

About The City Reliquary

The Reliquary is one of New York's most unique cultural institutions.   An all-volunteer museum and civic organization, The Reliquary celebrates the small and often overlooked aspects of New York City .   It is also a community organization that promotes civic responsibility. The Reliquary achieves this goal with a wonderful mix of exhibits and programming.  They:

* Collect and display everything from the original 2nd Avenue Deli sign to geological samples of our city's soil.

* Stage exhibits by local artists, historians, and public school students.

* Host block parties and bike rides that promote civic engagement and appreciation of New York 's past and present.

And, we are still looking for treats to sell at The Festival.  If you want to donate baked goods, please contact Jeff Tancil at jtancil@yahoo.com or 347-307-6474.
