Cape May’s Cold Spring Village Hosts Whimsical Autumn Equinox Celebration

This Sunday evening, Historic Cold Spring Village will transform into an enchanted realm as the Lunar Faire returns with its “Fairy/Tales” themed night market, celebrating the Autumn Equinox with a touch of magic and literary flair. From 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., visitors can step into a world of fantasy where fairy wings, mystical creatures, and classic storybook characters come to life. The event encourages guests of all ages to arrive in costume, whether channeling a favorite fairy-tale hero or a beloved book character. One of the evening's highlights is the "mushroom ring" — a communal fairy circle dance under the stars that promises to evoke the spirit of old-world folklore. Admission is priced at $15 when purchased in advance and $25 at the gate. Children aged 10 and under are admitted free, making it a family-friendly celebration of the season's change and storytelling magic.
Post Malone Goes Country, Heads to Wildwood Beach in 2026

Wildwood, NJ is set to welcome one of music’s biggest crossover stars next summer, as Post Malone will headline the 2026 Barefoot Country Music Fest. The four-day beachfront festival is scheduled for June 18–21, bringing over 30 acts to the iconic Jersey Shore. The announcement comes on the heels of Malone's critically acclaimed debut country album, F-1 Trillion, which has already made waves across the industry. The Barefoot Country Music Fest has become a staple of Wildwood summers, previously hosting country superstars like Carrie Underwood, Jason Aldean, Jelly Roll, and Keith Urban. Tickets are now on sale for what’s expected to be another unforgettable year on the sand.
Christian-Jewish Relations in Focus at Upcoming Stockton University Lecture

On September 30, Stockton University will host a thought-provoking discussion centered on the evolving landscape of Christian-Jewish relations in the context of the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. The event will feature editors Carol Rittner and John Roth, co-authors of Stress Test, a newly released book that confronts the ethical and interfaith challenges posed by the war. The program, set for 6 p.m. in Lecture Hall L-112 on Stockton’s Galloway campus, is free and open to the public, though an RSVP is required. Attendees will gain insight into how interfaith relationships are being tested in times of political and humanitarian crisis, and how open dialogue can help foster understanding. The event is co-sponsored by several community organizations, including Jewish Family Service of Atlantic County, the Jewish Federation and Board of Jewish Education of Atlantic and Cape May Counties, and the New Jersey Commission on Holocaust Education. New Jersey educators who attend will be eligible to receive two professional development hours. For more information or to RSVP, contact the Holocaust Resource Center at 609-652-4699 or email [email protected].
