The fourteenth annual Women’s EXPO will be held on Thursday, October 2, 2014 from 11 am to 6 pm at Middle Country Public Library, 101 Eastwood Blvd., Centereach. Admission is free. The Women’s EXPO provides a marketplace for Long Island women who create and distribute a variety of products including fine art, jewelry, clothing, pottery, paper products, children’s items, gift baskets, specialty food, glassware and more. A great opportunity to network, support Long Island women entrepreneurs and shop early for holiday gift giving, the Women’s EXPO showcases more than 80 Long Island women from Nassau and Suffolk counties, promoting economic independence for LI women and providing education and support for women entrepreneurs as well. Last year, over 2400 attended the event. Lunch from the Fifth Season is available for purchase in the EXPO Café. The EXPO’s Tea-At-Half-Past-Three features tea and scrumptious desserts from local bakeries.
The Women’s EXPO is presented by the Middle Country Library Foundation. Proceeds help to support the library’s Miller Business Resource Center. Bank of America is the EXPO’s lead sponsor.
