Feb. 14, 2024: Bronxville High School concluded its winter musical, Curtains, with a standing ovation to applaud the efforts of the cast, crew, musicians, teachers, and volunteers.

The ambitious show was bittersweet as it marked the last Bronxville musical for several graduating seniors moving onto even bigger stages, and it was the last high school musical to be led by Ms. Pamela Simpson, Bronxville High School’s beloved Music Teacher.

Amid farewells, a new chapter unfolds. Curtains was a first for Bronxville High School, as the school joined with Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, recognized for its iconic red buckets. This impressive charity group has raised and donated over $270 million dollars. Every dollar donated is turned into meals, medication, healthcare and hope in support of those in need in our community and across the U.S.

Over $600 was raised in Bronxville High School’s inaugural effort! Thank you to everyone who donated and supported the High School’s outstanding musical!

Bronxville Public Library
Bronxville Public Library

The Bronxville Public Library traces its origins back to 1875, when it was a small lending library housed in a room attached to the “Bronxville Model School.” The Library was officially chartered in 1906 and moved into the Village Hall Building. The needs of the library grew with the town and, in 1942, a new standalone building was erected, which is where the Library is today. Over the years, the Library was renovated and expanded to meet the needs of the community.

The Library has wonderful resources for adults and children and offers a comfortable and relaxing environment. The Library also houses a fine art collection, consisting principally of Bronxville painters and sculptors.

The Library offers special events, art exhibitions, and programs for adults, young adults and children. All events are open to the public, unless otherwise indicated.
