Rev NJ brings Tavern Talks to Needle Creek Brewery on Titus Mill Road

Hopewell Valley Historical Society is proud to co-sponsor with The Hopewell Museum, Needle Creek Brewing and Revolution NJ: Tavern Talks, an experience of immersive history where you can explore the ideals and motivations behind the American Revolution. Attendees are invited to imagine that you are in a colonial tavern. Neighbors, family, and friends with conflicting ideologies are all around you. In a defining moment for the American colonies, you must decide which side to take. You might find that the past is closer than you think!

Note: this is not a lecture! Attendees will have the opportunity to talk with reenactors about problems that we still face in our communities today, and use their civic voices as part of an interactive, immersive experience. Using accounts from the past, reenactors will immerse participants in back and forth discussion to help inform their decision. So, what happens when a loyalist, a patriot, and a pacifist walk into a bar? Join RevolutionNJ and Needle Creek Brewing onAugust 16th from 11:00 - 1:00PM to find out!

No prior historical knowledge is required, but you can explore the guide booklet here to prepare: https://www.revnj.org/s/TavernTalksWhoseSideBooklet.pdf
