The afternoon allows quiet time to reflect at the memorial until 3:00PM. We will have Ambassadors on site at this time to provide tours of The Garden and answer questions. At 7pm, the Remembrance in Light will unite for the 20th commemoration and combine the elements of sight, sound and light. The ceremony includes speakers and musical tributes and will last approximately 45 minutes. Due to the large attendance at this event, the public is encouraged to arrive around 6:30PM.

Fall Brewfest Cancelled
The Friends of Washington Crossing Park will not host Fall Brewfest on October 30 this year. This was not an easy decision and it wasn’t made lightly. We know how much you love this event and were looking forward to getting your tickets very soon.
But as we’ve all seen, COVID restrictions are increasing and by October may impact large outdoor events like Fall Brewfest. The last thing we wanted to do was sell tickets only to have the event’s capacity reduced or to put any attendee or volunteer in a potentially unsafe situation. Save the date for May 7, 2022: the return of the Washington Crossing Spring Brewfest. www.washingtoncrossingpark.org
