What’s brewing in America? Join RevolutionNJ in the age old tradition of debating revolutionary ideas in bars with friends. In this interactive event, attendees will get the chance to talk with reenactors and draw their own conclusions about the past.
Farmers & Bankers Brewing hosts RevolutionNJ and friends to explore the aftermath of the Revolution in New Jersey. Participants are invited to imagine that you are in a colonial tavern after the Treaty of Paris was signed. The tavern air smells like beer and fresh government. Reenactors and participants will explore new and exciting ways to fill the British Empire-shaped hole left behind by the War. What kind of government do we want? What will representation look like? Who will have a say in how things are done? What exactly should this new constitution consider?
Note: this is not a lecture! Attendees will have the opportunity to talk with reenactors about these fundamental questions, and use your civic voice as part of an interactive, immersive experience. Using accounts from the past, reenactors will immerse participants in back and forth discussion to help inform their decision. You might find that the past is closer than you think! Join RevolutionNJ at Farmers & Bankers Brewing on October 27th from 12:00 – 2:00PM.
Before you arrive, take a look at our booklet to prepare for the event.
