"Bailey said Sherrill’s appearance on August 5 represents an important milestone for the community and reflects the growing significance of an initiative that has expanded steadily since it was launched in 2022.
“I’m not sure when the last time we’ve had a governor come to Princeton for something like this outside of a campaign,” Bailey said in a recent interview. “It’s a very important discussion that’s going to happen.”
Sherrill is expected to participate alongside community leaders, business representatives, residents, and local officials during the celebration, which combines neighborhood recognition ceremonies, youth athletics, scholarship presentations, arts programming, music, faith-based events, and community gatherings."
We hope to see you this Wednesday at the Joint Effort Witherspoon-Jackson Community Princeton Safe Streets event!

"New Jersey-based theater company Chimera Productions will present its 17th production, Job by Max Wolf Friedlich, from August 13-15, 2026 at 8:00pm each night. The play, presented in the intimate 60-seat theater inside Princeton's Paul Robeson Center for the Arts, is a psychological thriller that offers a sharp, darkly funny, and unsettling examination of our addiction to work, the internet, the cost of modern life, and what we're willing to sacrifice to belong."
