Morven Museum & Garden Thanks Supporters of Fourth of July Jubilee
On Thursday, July 4, our Fourth of July Jubilee theme was Civic Season, a national program of activities helping us to us better understand our past and shape the future.
On behalf of Morven Museum & Garden, we thank the outstanding group of community partners who shared our vision of adding this important educational component to the celebratory activities: Historical Society of Princeton, Paul Robeson House of Princeton, People & Stories/Gente y Cuentos, Princeton Academy of Art, Princeton Public Library, RevolutionNJ, YWCA Princeton, and the Witherspoon-Jackson Historical and Cultural Society.
What a joy to see the grounds at Morven hopping with a large and lively group of more than 1,200 people of all ages enjoying music, hands-on activities, food, and fun. One of the highlights for young attendees was taking a turn at signing the Declaration of Independence.
At Morven, we are committed to lifelong learning, research, and sharing knowledge with visitors. Our spaces are intended to serve as a community gathering place, resource, and catalyst for understanding our shared history, and thanks to everyone who attended on July 4, we did just that.
Thank you to our generous sponsors, Baxter Construction, Blue Sky Green Earth, and Fulton Bank, without whom this event would not have been possible.
