You are invited to visit the Ocean County Historical Society on Sunday, September 20 as we celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence. There will be an open house commencing at 12:30 with guided tours of the Victorian style Elizabeth Sculthorp Force House and Museum. You will be able to view our newest display on the history of the American Revolution and the involvement of Ocean County. The display is co-sponsored by the Ocean County Cultural & Heritage Commission. At 2:00, live music of the 18th century will be performed by Ministers of Apollo, followed by a celebratory cake.
Ministers of Apollo, a historical music and performance duo consisting of Eliza Vincz and Eric Lichack, recreate 18th century American life through authentic music, costumes, and living history demonstrations.
This event takes place at our museum at 26 Hadley Avenue in Toms River. There is no charge, but donations are greatly appreciated. To attend, you must register in advance by sending your name, zip code, email address, and the date of the program to oceancountyhistory.programs@gmail.com.
