As New Jersey’s largest city, Newark is home to generations of Americans drawn by economic opportunity, cultural offerings, quality of life and superior location. Much of Newark’s charm lies in its wealth of recreational and cultural attractions. Our city abounds with music, history, fine dining and entertain-ment. There is a treasure trove of art and artifacts at galleries and museums, exciting professional sports, world-class performances and family fun offered by minor league baseball, festivals and fairs. All of these wonderful attributes reinforce our efforts in building a stronger, safer, prouder city. I invite you to discover what we have known for years—that Newark is an authentic, diverse and dynamic destination for our residents and visitors alike. I welcome you and encourage you to explore and experience for yourself.
