Celebrate Jewish American Heritage Month with 'Bottle Dancers USA' at the Ocean County Library

originally published: 04/08/2025

(TOMS RIVER, NJ) -- L'chaim! Experience the ebullience and energy that make Jewish culture a treat and a treasure. The Ocean County Library is pleased to present performances by Bottle Dancers USA at four branches (Waretown, Stafford, Jackson, and Upper Shores) during May.

You’ll enjoy an eye-popping series of dance variations from Eastern Europe, especially the troupe’s world-renowned Bottle Dance, the awe-inspiring exercise in agility while keeping glass bottles perched and balanced atop their heads.

Brimming with spirit and athleticism, Bottle Dancers USA have spread joy around the globe through Jewish, Hasidic, Hebrew, Yiddish and Klezmer dances since 2005. They’re in constant demand at family events, resorts, schools, festivals, fundraisers, television and more. Their celebrated “crashes” infuse weddings and special events with extra hilarity and goodwill.

Please register at https://tinyurl.com/OclJAHM for this free program at the OCL branch of your choice. For more information, stop by or call any participating branch. See the full schedule of Library programs in the online Calendar of Events.
