Celebrating the Trent House Museum’s Birthday with Free Ice Cream
The Trent House Association will host its annual Ice Cream Social on Saturday, June 1, 2024, from 1 to 5 pm on the grounds of the 1719 William Trent House Museum at 15 Market Street in Trenton. There is free parking in the rear of the museum property, which is directly across the Hughes Justice Complex at the corner of Market Street and William Trent Place.
The 2024 Ice Cream Social celebrates two birthdays for the Museum – the 305th birthday of the house’s construction and the 85th birthday of its opening as a museum. The event also continues the Trent House’s “Esta Es Su Casa – This Is Your Home” initiative, generously supported by the Bunbury Fund of the Princeton Area Community Foundation.
In addition to free ice cream and toppings, the event will feature live music, children’s art activities and games, and more. Visitors are encouraged to picnic on the beautiful grounds.
The William Trent House Museum is a National Historic Landmark in the Crossroads of the American Revolution National Heritage Area and on the Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route National Historic Trail. The Museum is dedicated to sharing the authentic history of the house, property, and people with our communities, connecting the past with today and tomorrow. Owned by the City of Trenton, it is operated by the Trent House Association, which is supported by the generosity of its donors; by grants from the New Jersey Council for the Humanities, the New Jersey Cultural Trust, the New Jersey Historic Trust, the Mercer County Cultural and Heritage Commission with funding from the New Jersey Historical Commission, and the Bunbury Fund and the New Jersey Arts & Culture Renewal Fund of the Princeton Area Community Foundation; and by contributions from NJM Insurance Group and Orion General Contractors.
