Wander Words

Traveling to New Jersey? Ok, no one travels to New Jersey. Stuck in New Jersey and looking for something new to do? Next month is MUSEUM DAY which means free admission to local attractions, like the Stickley Museum.

Stickley Museum at Craftsman Farms is participating in Smithsonian Magazine’s Museum Day on September 27, 2008. Museum Day is a chance for you (and a friend!) to get free admission to participating museums. Smithsonian has this to say about the Stickley Museum at Craftsman Farms:

Designed, built, and lived in by early 20th Century designer Gustav Stickley, it is one of the most significant structures of the American Arts and Crafts Movement. The site, which consists of 30 acres and nine historic buildings has been designated a National Historic Landmark.
Exhibits

Stickley’s home, a massive log structure of his own design, has been restored and interpreted for tours. An original Stickley cottage is also on view and scenic walking trails are open. Shop containing extensive collection of reference books, as well as pottery, tiles, and more.

To get your Museum Day pass, look in the September 2008 issue of Smithsonian magazine or get your card online.
