The Old Barracks Museum hosts a variety of exciting events throughout the year, from our renowned Battles of Trenton Reenactments during the annual Trenton Patriots Week to special programs and activities held year-round. Explore our upcoming events below.
Founder’s Day
The Old Barracks Museum is proud to announce the first annual Trenton Barracks Founders Day on June 13, 2026. This special day will celebrate the history and preservation of New Jersey’s only surviving colonial barracks while honoring the women who helped sustain the site—especially Beulah Oliphant. Working with the Daughters of the American Revolution, Beulah helped mobilize a purchasing community to secure the building and establish the Old Barracks Museum Association in 1902. The event will feature vendors, food trucks, and entertainment for our community’s families and friends. More information to come!
