Ms. Paolucci’s mission comes from personal experience: “Starting chemotherapy is a frightening experience. We are saying to patients ‘Here is a box of tools put together by someone who’s been there. Know that you are not alone and these tools will help you take care of yourself during this difficult journey.’ ” Ms. Paolucci was a NY1 New Yorker of the Week.Manhattan Art Bar 52 Eighth Ave; 212-727-0244; artbar.com Beltane 10 E 16th St; 646-476-3551; beltanenyc.com Brandy Library 25 N Moore St; 212-226-5545; brandylibrary.com The Dead Poet 450 Amsterdam Ave; 212-595-5670; TheDeadPoet.com Employees Only 510 Hudson St; 212-242-3021; employeesonlynyc.com 54 Below 254 W 54th St, Cellar; 646-476-3551; 54Below.com Jungle Bird 174 Eighth Ave; junglebirdnyc.com Sutton Bar Room 1074 First Ave; 212-980-9850; suttonbarroom.com Westville Hudson 333 Hudson St; 978-448-0174; Westville.com Brooklyn Blinky’s 609 Grand St; 334-398-1109; blinkysbar.com Folk 689 6th Ave; 718-766-0800; folkbrooklyn.com Kissa Kissa 667 Franklin Ave; 347-507-9090; kissakissa.us Queens On The 7 50-04 Vernon Ave, LIC; 718-784-2350; onthe7lic.com
