The Bureau has released its new digital walking tour app which is available wherever you get your apps. The app, called “Morristown Walking Tour and Beyond,” provides information, photos and audio clips for 27 historic sites within downtown Morristown and in the County of Morris. The app, available from Apple and Google, is free. You can also view the app in your browser and it is free.

According to recent projections, when people plan vacations post-Covid, they will travel domestically, stay close to home, and drive to their destination. The new app will serve this market in 2021. It is self-guided, you can begin and end as you like, and have a wealth of information about each site at your fingertips. Within the app, links are provided for additional in-depth information.

The digital walking tour app provides a safe and secure way to visit Morris County. It highlights the top attractions in Morris County and serves as a vacation planner. The stops on the app will keep a family busy for a long weekend stay in Morris County. For those who want to learn about Morris County from a comfortable armchair, the app is good for that, too!

To access the new app, you can visit these links:

Time to see this stunning show at the Morris Museu

Time to see this stunning show at the Morris Museum before it leaves on May 2nd.
Contemporary tapestry artist Jon Eric Riis is internationally acclaimed for his opulent work in woven silk and metallic thread, often embellished with pearls, gemstone beads, and crystals. Art history, religion, non-western cultures, and topical issues serve as sources of inspiration for his handwoven narratives that strike a balance between social commentary and virtuoso craftsmanship. The over 60 works on view include large-scale mythological tapestry panels, archetypal coat and robe forms that evoke ceremonial vestments, and experimental anatomical tapestry strips that reflect upon the corporeality of our existence.
