Join
Us! Jersey City Museum's 2009 Annual
Meeting OPEN
HOUSE Thursday,
July 30th, 6 - 8 pm
PLUS! FREE
ADMISSION TO THE MUSEUM ALL DAY 11AM - 8PM
Please join us for our
Annual Meeting and report to donors and stakeholders. It's also a great
party, when we thank you--our members and supporters - for all of your
support in the last year.
We hope that you will stop by to meet our Board and staff, and stay for
refreshments, mingling, and browsing through the gift shop.
We will also debut this
year's installment of the I Love Jersey
City exhibition, titled Everybody Counts. Jersey
City Museum is doing its part to help ensure that everyone participates in
the 2010 Census,
beginning with this exhibition of photographs of the faces of Jersey City
submitted by the public. I Love Jersey City: Everybody Counts is on
view in the museum's upper atrium gallery July 30 through December 19,
2009.
Whether you are a
regular visitor or have not been to the museum in awhile, we hope that you
can join us this year. The event is free and open to the public. RSVP to
Rita Salpietro at rita@jerseycitymuseum.org.
Jersey City Museum remains grateful to the City of Jersey City, Mayor
Jerramiah Healy, and the Municipal Council for their continuing
support.

from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a
Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts, Hudson County
Office of Cultural & Heritage Affairs, Thomas A. DeGise, County

Foundation, JP Morgan Chase, BLDG Management/The Athena Group, and the
Turrell Fund. Additional funding is provided by many other generous
corporate, foundation and individual donors, and our museum members.
