The two organizations are using their expertise and connections to private and institutional collections to bring together an unprecedented amount of memorabilia describing the experience of New Jersey and her soldiers in the Civil War. Tours are Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays from 1 pm to 4 pm. Admission is $6 for adults and $5 for seniors. Students 12 years and under and museum members are free.
