East Brunswick Public Library Celebrates America's 250th
As the nation celebrates its 250th birthday, the East Brunswick Public Library reflects on how the American Revolution shaped the ongoing pursuit of equality and liberty for all. The diverse population of the colonies in 1776 mirrored the wide range of experiences that defined this era, and those questions of leadership, rights, and justice continue to resonate today. Join us at one of the following events here at the Library to explore America's unique history and consider how the ideals of the Revolution apply to our present and future. Some events focus directly on New Jersey.
