New Jersey Historical Commission
Save the date for a special Juneteenth event sponsored by the Monmouth County Historical Association and the New Jersey Historical Commission. Beneath the Floorboards is an exhibition telling the stories of the enslaved African Americans who once resided at Marlpit Hall. This event will expand upon the exhibition’s narrative to explore the lives and experiences of enslaved people in Monmouth County and New Jersey at large, with curator-led tours of the exhibit, a panel of speakers, and cultural programming. Light refreshments will be provided.
Guests are invited to stop in at any time during the day’s programming. Free limited parking is available on site. The NJ Transit Middletown – New Jersey Station is located one half mile from Marlpit Hall.
