About this Event

Take a special tour of Liberty Hall and learn the stories of the enslaved individuals who lived and labored at the historic home and on its grounds. Using letters, census records, manumission contracts, and even grave sites in Elizabeth uncover the stories of Abbe, Belle, Lambert, Henry, Sarah, Peter, and others. Learn about the ongoing research of Liberty Hall and Kean University as we give voice and narrative to the individuals once enslaved at this historic home.

Reservations encouraged. Walk-ins allowed.
