FRATERNAL FARMING: Stanley and Sewell Updike used to farm on the family property through the 1970s, with their primary cash crop being sod. The Historical Society of Princeton (HSP) acquired the Updike Farmstead and the building slated to be the organization’s future home base in 2004. An in-depth look at the land, and surrounding historic community, is the subject of “Stony Brook: Gateway to Princeton,” the HSP’s latest exhibition on view until July 4 at Bainbridge House, 158 Nassau Street. The opening reception is Thursday, February 25 from 5 to 7 p.m. For more information, visit princetonhistory.org. |
The rich community history behind family names associated with Princeton through road signs and eponymous historic homes comes vividly to life in the Historical Society of Princeton’s (HSP) latest exhibition, “Stony Brook: Gateway to Princeton.”
The 2012 Project, sponsored by the Rutgers Center for Woman and Politics (CAWP), would like to address the paucity of women in office in this country.
