In honor of Independence Day and New Jersey’s 350th birthday, Morven Museum & Garden will host a free family event celebrating its American heritage at the home-turned-museum of Richard Stockton, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, on July 4.

Festivities include Stacy Flora Roth presenting Over Here Molly Pitcher, celebrating women of the American Revolution, and a discussion with “George Washington” as he shares personal letters.

There will also be a variety of colonial life demonstrations including bread baking and ice cream making, as well as an opportunity for children of all ages to “sign” the Declaration of Independence.

Guests may bring blankets or chairs and relax on Morven’s front lawn as they enjoy music by the Riverside Bluegrass Band and refreshments by Oink & Moo BBQ, a BBQ food truck.

July 4th Jubilee is scheduled for 12 to 3 p.m. July 4 at Museum & Garden, 55 Stockton St., Princeton

Admission is free and no registration is required.
