display of “NJ 350: This Is New Jersey” on loan from the Newark Public Library. A series of large format posters, the Exhibit depicts important events and phases of New Jersey’s history. Curated by Thomas Ankner, a librarian in the Charles F. Cummings New Jersey Information Center at the Newark Public Library, the pieces originally were displayed in the Main Atrium of the Newark Public Library to commemorate the state’s 350th Anniversary. Each piece contains a different set of photographs, sketches and other artwork from a particular era, along with short written descriptions of the periods and images depicted.
