Five Independent Souls explores the lives of the five delegates representing New Jersey who signed the Declaration of Independence in 1776, looking at who they were before, during, and after the signing. This exhibit also confronts one of the most confounding actualities around the signers of the Declaration of Independence: these five men, who put their lives on the line for liberty, freedom, and equality, simultaneously denied these very same rights to the people they enslaved.
One of Morven’s engaging docents will guide you through the exhibition, sharing insights about the over 100 historic artifacts including manuscripts, paintings, furniture, and personal objects on loan from collections across the country.
This tour is limited to 15 people. Pre-registration is required. Your ticket includes admission to the museum and all exhibitions.
Docent-led tours of Five Independent Souls are offered several times a month through the close of the exhibition in January 2027. Please see below a list of current dates (all tours start at 1:00 P.M.).
