Special Exhibit: Art of the Witness Stones Project

All month, the Princeton Public Library will display a special art and history exhibit from SSAAM in their second-floor Reading Room. This exhibit will share the artwork of Timberlane Middle School’s 8th grade students who researched the lives of Friday Truehart, Frost Blackwell, and Nance, three individuals who were enslaved in Central New Jersey during the 18th and 19th centuries. In collaboration with SSAAM and the Witness Stones Project, students created touching artwork reflecting on the lives of these enslaved people and the legacy of slavery in New Jersey.
