Join us as we learn about the extraordinary discovery and restoration journey of the nearly 16’x10’ masterpiece created by George Matthews Harding in 1921, to be unveiled at the opening of the new WCSP Museum & Visitors Center in 2026. This program will feature Washington Crossing Park Association Executive Director Annette Earling and art conservator and Lambertville resident Christyl Cusworth about their undertaking to restore this iconic American Impressionist mural that depicts Washington’s crossing of the Delaware in December 1776.
This event is free. Donations are welcome and will go to the Washington Crossing Park Association to support the mural hanging.
