IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: 🇺🇸 May 16: The First Oval Office Project is Coming! Step into Washington's Command Center in Historic Moorestown ! 🇺🇸
For the first time in nearly 250 years, General George Washington’s legendary War Tent will travel the Historic Kings Highway and make its grand appearance in Moorestown!
Join the Historical Society of Moorestown, in partnership with the Museum of the American Revolution, as we host The First Oval Office Project—a powerful, traveling exhibition commemorating the Nation’s 250th Semiquincentennial.
Experience History Like Never Before:
• Walk in His Footsteps: Encounter a full-scale, hand-stitched replica of Washington’s Revolutionary War Tent—the very space often called America’s “First Oval Office.” This tent was his wartime headquarters, a command center where critical decisions were made and the Continental Army was led.
• Immersive Encounters: Step into the past with costumed interpreters, interactive displays, associated replica camp equipage, and furnishings that bring the era to vivid life. You may even meet George & Martha, Ben Franklin, and others!
• A Day of Revolutionary Fun: Enjoy live 18th-century music, food, hands-on colonial crafts, and engaging games for all ages.
