HOLI CELEBRATION AT PS 150
PS 150 will host a celebration of Holi on Saturday, March 4, from 3 to 7p, at their new location downtown on Trinity Place. There will be performances, activities, music and dancing, Indian food and the traditional playing with Holi colors — so dress appropriately. (NB: I don’t think they will be using a firetruck as in the photo above; I just couldn’t resist the image.) See more info on tickets etc. here.

UPS STORE MOVES TO PARK PLACE
The UPS store that was on Murray has moved to Park Place and it is new and improved. Plus those folks were always really nice in there.
CLOSING SALE AT MANHATTAN LABEL
Manhattan Label, a furniture retail showroom at 85 White between Broadway and Lafayette, is closing this location permanently on Feb. 28. They are trying to sell all the floor samples in the meantime; prices are 50 to 70 percent off.
I worked downtown and went to the UPS store many times. The people there were always nice and I’m so glad it’s moving to Park Place. There have been lots of empty spaces there for too many years.
