Free Saturday Labor Arts Classes for Children, Grades 3 through 5

March 7th - May 23rd, 2026

The Museum has received funding from the Puffin Foundation to host Saturday Labor Arts classes. The purpose of the program is to introduce students to the history and contemporary issues of working people and immigrants through the visual and performing arts. Registered students will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on activities by which they are encouraged to develop their understanding of an immigrant worker’s home, lifestyle and workplace as a means of comparison to the same issues today. Due to the program’s growing popularity, pre-registration is required and seating is limited. For further information and to register, please call the Museum at 973-595-7953 or email labormuseum@gmail.com.

Women in America’s Revolutions 1776 and 1926

Exhibit on view Jan. 7th - Dec. 31st, 2026

The exhibit highlights women who were revolutionaries of the American Revolution and the 1926 Passaic Woolen Mills Strike. Both anniversaries provide the opportunity to shine a light on working women and those of privilege who courageously stood up to the establishment despite any consequences they faced. The Museum invites the general public to discover the fascinating and inspiring “untold stories” of revolutionary women who contributed to the freedoms and dignity with which citizens live in America and New Jersey.

Legendary Ladies A to Z by Patti Kaufman

Exhibit on view Jan. 7th - June 30th, 2026

This exhibit features a series of collage paintings honoring courageous, bold women who have taken great risks and who, despite the odds, succeeded in making a lasting contribution that changed the world. Each of the 26 paintings highlights a woman whose last name begins with a different letter of the alphabet and a significant quote by her. These exhibits are made possible in part by a grant administered by the Passaic County Cultural and Heritage Council from funds granted by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts.
