The Meadowlands Museum is open on Saturdays 
from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. 

Our apologies for not being open on May 4, 2014 
as we will be helping the 
Rutherford Historic Preservation Society at their
Spring Yard Sale at 491 Riverside Avenue, Rutherford
please stop by the yard sale to see what treasures you can find. 
Half of the yard Sale proceeds will be donated to the
Meadowlands Museum to help us keep the area's history alive.

We look forward to your next visit at the Museum
at 91 Crane Avenue, Rutherford, NJ .

 Funding of the Meadowlands Museum is also supported in part through grant funds administered by the Bergen County Division of
Cultural and Historic Affairs, Department of Parks, through a General Operating Support grant from the New
Jersey Historical Commission, a division of the Department of State.

The Meadowlands Museum was grateful to be a recipient of a 2020 COVID-19 Response Grant from the NJ Council for the Humanities, which was made available through the CARES Act funding that was allocated through the NEH.  This Grant covers some of the Museum's General Operating Expenses during this time of the COVID -19 pandemic.
