Four Centuries in a Weekend
Saturday, October 19 and Sunday, October 20

Over two dozen museums and historic sites across Union County will be open both days giving history buffs a chance to take a journey through more than 400 years of history. Member volunteers will be in our Museum to provide tours and answer questions about our building’s history. Visitors will also have an opportunity to visit the gravesite of Abraham Clark, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, who is buried in the historic Rahway Cemetery, which is within walking distance of the museum.

On Sunday, October 20 only, a hearth cooking demonstration will be ongoing in our rustic kitchen. Visitors will be invited to step into the kitchen to experience the sights and aromas of the past and watch as our cooks prepare a full meal. We hope you will join us to sample the food items as they are prepared throughout the day.
Booklets listing each of the participating sites and passport books will be available at the sign up table.

Admission to all locations is free and each will be open from noon to 5:00 on both Saturday and Sunday. Visit as many as you can.
