News Update 6/23/22: The air conditioning at the Newark History Museum needs to be completely replaced. The City of Newark has ordered the new AC units, and we are waiting for delivery and installation. Because the inside temperature of the museum is not comfortable for guests and volunteers, the museum will be closed until further notice. We currently expect to be open for the Curator's Small Group Tours on Saturday, July 23, but we will publish an update at least a week in advance.
Thank you all for your patience and support!
