NORTH BRUNSWICK – The township will celebrate its 40th Annual Heritage Day at Community Park.

The community-wide event will be held from 3-10 p.m. Oct. 15 and is dedicated to celebrating the cultural heritage and diverse history of North Brunswick and its residents.

Heritage Day 2022 will feature multiple food vendors, musical performances, craft booths, horse carriages, games, local businesses and school organizations.
