The New-York Historical Society

Peapack-Gladstone Bank processed our Paycheck Protection Program loans quickly and efficiently. This allowed us to face the pandemic with a renewed sense of purpose and remain true to our mission of inspiring—especially in young people—the courage, fortitude, and intelligence to use the lessons of the past to secure our country's democracy. This was just the beginning of what we hope will be a long relationship. Dr. Louise Mirrer, President and CEO

The New-York Historical Society, New York's first museum, is home to 400 years of history through groundbreaking exhibitions, immersive films, and thought-provoking conversations among renowned historians and public figures. A great destination for history since 1804, the Museum and the Patricia D. Klingenstein Library convey the stories of the City and nation's diverse populations, expanding visitors' understanding of who they are as Americans and how they came to be. Continually rising to the challenge of bringing unknown histories to light, New-York Historical will soon inaugurate a new annex housing its Academy for American Democracy as well as the American LGBTQ+ Museum. These latest efforts to help forge the future by documenting the past join New-York Historical's DiMenna Children's History Museum and Center for Women's History, while digital exhibitions, apps, and the For the Ages podcast make it possible for visitors everywhere to dive more deeply into history.
