Jewish Family Service of MetroWest will hold its annual Evening of Laughter on Tuesday, June 6, at Temple B’nai Abraham, 300 E. Northfield Road, Livingston New Jersey. The featured performer will be comedian Gary Gulman, who was a finalist on the NBC reality-talent show Last Comic Standing and is a regular on late-night comedy programs. The performance will benefit Jewish Family Service of MetroWest’s programs and services.
The Evening of Laughter this year celebrates the 20th anniversary of Rachel Coalition, a division of JFS MetroWest that provides support and services to victims of domestic violence. JFS MetroWest is also honoring two couples for their outstanding partnership with JFS and Rachel Coalition, Andrea and Bryan Bier of West Orange, and Lisa and Erik Lindauer of Short Hills. Both couples have generously volunteered their time and expertise over many years in a variety of capacities. Andrea and Lisa currently serve on the JFS Executive Committee and are past chairs of Rachel Coalition.
General admission tickets are $180 per person and include general admission to a 7 p.m. cocktail reception, the 8 p.m. performance and dessert following the show. An opportunity to support JFS through a benefactor ticket at $360 per person includes an elaborate private cocktail reception at 6:30 p.m. and dessert after the show.
