(PISCATAWAY, NJ) -- East Jersey Old Town Village in Piscataway will host a traveling exhibit from The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum entitled "Discover Greatness: An Illustrated History of Negro Leagues Baseball" from February 2 through May 1, 2022. The exhibit features close to 90 framed photographs showcasing the history of African American baseball from the late 1800s to 1960s.

East Jersey Town Village is located at 1050 River Road in Piscataway, New Jersey. It is an open-air museum located in Johnson Park in Piscataway, New Jersey. The Village is a collection of Raritan Valley area historic buildings and includes original, reconstructed, and replicated 18th and 19th century vernacular architecture typical of farm and merchant communities of Central Jersey.
