Testimonials

I have been talking about taking a tour of Trenton for many years. Although I was born in Jersey many years ago, there are many places I’ve never seen. So glad I came to the museum today. Finally! It’s been a very rewarding and educational experience.

We love all imaginative play and 'discovery' type play! Thank you for making the museum kid friendly!

My grandson and I come here every Saturday. I’ve been coming here for 50 years.
