PUBLIC PROGRAMS
Discover the world and its people through lectures, lessons and special
family events. The New Jersey State Museum provides quality educational
programs to enhance the museum experience. Enjoy dance, music and children's
theatre in a 400-seat auditorium as well as weekend workshops for children.
School groups find lessons tailored to their curriculum while adult
groups may schedule tours that explore special areas of interest. Many
visitors return again and again, to view a favorite painting, to rediscover
the history of New Jersey, to see changing exhibitions or to bring their
own children to the fascinating place they visited as a child. Whether
you are a first-time visitor or an old friend, the State Museum invites
you to visit and explore our four museums in one.
