PreservingRememberingSharing History
The mission of the Wicoff House Museum is to preserve and promote the history of Plainsboro by collecting and displaying objects, documents and photographs related to it.
The Wicoff House was the home of John Van Buren Wicoff, who led the successful effort of the residents of Plainsboro to incorporate the Township in 1919.
Engaging our Community
History museums should be sustainable for future stakeholders and relevant for a modern audience. History museums have the power to inspire people of all ages, identities and backgrounds. At the Wicoff House Museum, we create engaging programs where everyone can feel welcome.
