Weekly Living History Program, Washington Crossing Park
Friday August 23, 2024
Join us for a series of Free Weekly Living History programs that we will be conducting in the park on Fridays in April – June at the Lower Park, and then Fridays and Saturdays in July – September at the Thompson Neely Farmstead. These programs will cover a variety of topics surrounding the life of Soldiers and civilians during the American Revolution. Reenactors and demonstrators will discuss the topic/activity they are portraying while also providing context for how this would affect life during the American Revolution. July – September demonstrations will take place at 12:00pm, 1:00pm and 2:00pm. Weekly Living History Programs are sponsored by the Albert W. Bader Foundation, Americana Corner and generous contributions from Christopher and Mary Jane Beck and the Starke Family.
