To further its mission to “cultivate interest among individuals in the community at large in the history of ” the Passaic County Historical Society has developed a traveling exhibitions initiative to add to the services we offer our community. Libraries, museums, and schools can now request to borrow some or all exhibition panels associated with exhibits that have been held at Lambert Castle.
Our traveling exhibitions are available to qualified hosts* upon request, free of charge. The host organization is responsible for transport of the panels to and from their location, as well as all aspects of safe display. The panels can be reserved at any time for any date, but use will be subject to availability and requests will be processed on a first come, first serve basis. Please submit requests at least two weeks before intended use.
