Unveiling “Monet, Our Visiting Artist” on the banks of the Delaware

POSTPONED due to forecasted storms. Please join us next week, July 16 for this event.

Join the Washington Crossing Park Association (WCPA) and Washington Crossing State Park at 3pm on Sunday as we welcome “Monet,” who, through the magic of the Johnson Atelier, is painting his own version of Washington Crossing the Delaware at the site of the historic event! The event will include ceremonial unveiling and musket firing. Festivities will feature a short discussion by Park historian Mark Sirak on the many artistic representations of the historic crossing over the years, including the Park’s famous George Harding mural. The Hopewell Valley Arts Council will feature a live demonstration of plein air painting with local artist Barbara DiLorenzo, and the WCPA will be serving free gingerbread cookies and iced chai lattes flavored with native spicebush foraged from Park grounds.

“Monet, Our Visiting Artist.” South River Drive (in front of the Lower Park parking lot), Titusville, NJ. 3pm, Sunday, July 9 – rain date July 16
