My Central Jersey

Jun 13, 2022

History will look to the future when the Stoutsburg Sourland African American Museum (SSAAM), Central Jersey’s only Black history museum, will hold its first Juneteenth celebration on June 18.

SSAAM is welcoming the public for the first time not only after the COVID-19 pandemic, but after extensive restoration and renovation, said Executive Director Donnetta Johnson.

Founded in 2014, SSAAM's mission is to tell the story of the unique culture, experiences and contributions of the African American community of the Sourland Mountain region, the largest undeveloped area between New York City and Philadelphia.
