Organization of the Week: Friends of the Indian King Tavern

Every Monday, I highlight a non-profit related to history or the arts, a historical society, preservation group or friends group whose main objective is to promote the historical and artistic history of New Jersey.

This week, I am featuring the Friends of the Indian King Tavern. The Friends of the Indian King Tavern are a volunteer group dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and interpretation of the tavern as a museum. Each year, the Friends support eight or nine annual open house programs, provide reenactors, period musicians, and speakers. Through generous donations and fundraisers, the Friends have the ability to  purchase artifacts and furnishings for the Tavern.

The Friends of the Indian King Tavern rely on memberships, fundraising, and countless volunteers to continue its mission. For more information on programs, special events, and exhibits hosted by the Friends of the Indian King Tavern or to become a member or volunteer, please call 856-429-6792 or visit www.indiankingfriends.org.

If you are a member of a non-profit organization or know of one that you would like to see featured on this site, please let us know in the comments or send an e-mail to kelly@thehistorygirl.com.
