(NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ) -- State Theatre New Jersey will host a Women’s Tea Luncheon on Wednesday, March 14, 2018 to raise funds for State Theatre New Jersey’s arts access initiatives. The event, which is a celebration for Women’s History Month, includes a networking hour and special program on the stage of the historic venue. Tickets and sponsorships are available from $150, and both men and women are welcome to help support this important cause. For tickets, call 732- 247-2700, ext. 512 or email rsvp@stnj.org.
