UPDATE: We are looking for art programs, non-profits, and elder program coordinators to consider programs in which an entire art Class works to create their own collection tied to our collective local history.
The Mr. Local History Project is looking for artists to interpret our local history boards and create memorable images of local history for the Somerset Hills communities of Bernardsville, Bernards Township, Bedminster, Peapack, and Gladstone.
If you’re interested in volunteering, drop us a note, and we can connect to discuss further.
