Beulah Oliphant Award
Join the Old Barracks Museum for a special evening honoring Cate Litvack, recipient of the 2026 Beulah Oliphant Award, on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, from 4:30–6:30 pm. This year’s award will be presented posthumously, honoring Cate Litvack’s extraordinary legacy, and will be accepted by members of her family.
The 2026 honoree is Cate Litvack, who devoted her life to public service, cultural enrichment, and historic preservation in New Jersey. A longtime leader in land conservation and heritage advocacy, she served on numerous boards including the D&R Greenway Land Trust, where she was chair and helped lay the foundation for its enduring work protecting open space throughout the region. She was the first Executive Director of the Crossroads of the American Revolution, leading the effort to secure its designation as a National Heritage Area, and championed the preservation and interpretation of Revolutionary-era history for future generations. Cate also served on the boards of the Old Barracks Museum, the Advocates for New Jersey History, and the Trenton Arts Fund, bringing passion, insight, and unwavering support to organizations dedicated to safeguarding New Jersey’s heritage. Her remarkable contributions reflect the very spirit of the Beulah Oliphant Award.
