Historic Classroom at the Morris Museum

In our interactive Historic Classroom, children and adults alike can sit in wood desks and use a chalkboard that hearken back to days of yore with a lesson in fun! There are child-sized pinafores to play dress-up, examples of turn-of-the-century school supplies to examine and photographs of historic Morristown to create an atmosphere of discovery.

The classroom area celebrates the fact that the Morris Museum, previously known as the Morristown Children’s Museum, found a temporary home in the Maple Avenue School building prior to moving to 141 Madison Avenue in the 1950s.
