Tavern Talks at the American Revolution Museum of South Jersey

  • Benjamin Cooper House 60 Erie Street Camden, NJ United States (map)

Come to an afternoon of immersive history at the Historic Benjamin Cooper's Tavern featuring brews by Kings Road Brewery

What's brewing in America? Calling all history-curious brewery enthusiasts to join RevolutionNJ in the age old tradition of debating revolutionary ideas in bars with friends.

The American Revolution Museum of South Jersey hosts RevolutionNJ and Kings Road Brewing to explore the ideals and motivations behind the American Revolution. Attendees are invited to imagine that you are in a colonial tavern. Neighbors, family, and friends with conflicting ideologies are all around you. In a defining moment for the American colonies, you must decide which side to take. You might find that the past is closer than you think!

Note: this is not a lecture! Attendees will have the opportunity to talk with reenactors about problems that we still face in our communities today, and use their civic voices as part of an interactive, immersive experience. Using accounts from the past, reenactors will immerse participants in back and forth discussion to help inform their decision. So, what happens when a loyalist, a patriot, and a pacifist walk into a bar? Join us to find out!
