About Us

The Asbury Park Museum is in the process of acquiring a permanent home in downtown Asbury Park. Meanwhile, we are introducing a series of rotating pop-up exhibitions in the lobby of the historic Berkeley Oceanfront Hotel, 1401 Ocean Avenue, Asbury Park, New Jersey. Our first such exhibit is “Asbury Park: 150 Years of Change and Transformation – A Segregated Seashore” that explores the history of Asbury Park’s beachfront and boardwalk from 1871 to the present day. The story is told in retractable banners, a twenty minute slide show and two showcases of historic artifacts. You may visit that exhibit from now until the end of November. Admission is free. That will be followed by an exhibit on Asbury Park’s diverse music history. We are continuing to acquire, for display, artifacts and memorabilia relating to Asbury Park’s fascinating history.

In the meantime, please consider becoming a Charter Member or making a donation to the Asbury Park Museum. You can do either from the “Get Involved Page.” You can help preserve Asbury Park’s historical legacy. The Asbury Park Museum is a 501c3 nonprofit organization and your donations are tax deductible.
