As East Hanover prepares for its own Centennial Celebration, we invite residents and organizations to explore regional events connected to the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution. Morris County—known as the Crossroads of the Revolution—is hosting a wide range of historical programs, exhibits, and community events throughout 2025–2026 leading up to July 4, 2026. These activities present opportunities for collaboration, education, and shared celebration of our region’s rich Revolutionary history.
