Hightstown Then & Now Calendar – Celebrate Hightstown’s 300th Birthday

The Hightstown Cultural Arts Commission invites local artists to help residents celebrate Hightstown’s 300th anniversary through the creation of a 2022 wall calendar that will feature photos of historic sites in the Borough alongside the chosen artistic interpretations of how the sites appear NOW.

Visual artists are invited to view historic photographs of Hightstown, choose one or more to render in paint, pastel, pencil, or another medium, and depict how the site appears today. The rendering may be done in any size, but ultimately featured interpretations will be reproduced the size of the historic photograph that inspired the artwork.

Calendars will be available for purchase in October 2021.

Completed art is due on June 21.

To review the historic photographs, please visit here and complete this simple form indicating interest.
