The American Revolution created dramatic disruptions and opportunities for the people of New Jersey. While much is known about the challenges faced by the leaders of the conflict, most Americans are less familiar with the experiences of ordinary people. We invite you to explore their lives and how their experiences, views, and choices were shaped by their unique circumstances.

Revolutionary Lives: Living the American Experiment Then and Now is a traveling exhibit that explores the stories of everyday people during the American Revolution in New Jersey in 12 portable panels.
