how do you begin to describe a project that has, i

how do you begin to describe a project that has, in some ways, been in the works for decades? you see, this one is special.

Romus Broadway was a resident of the Witherspoon-Jackson neighborhood, the historic community we’re proud to call home. for generations, Romus was the unofficial photographer of the neighborhood, capturing proms, cookouts, graduations, and the everyday moments that make a community a community.

he turned his photographs into countless collages, visual scrapbook-style documents that truly capture the pulse of a neighborhood. his neighborhood.

for years, these collages have been displayed at various community events, including here at the Arts Council. each and every time, folks would view the photographs and smile, offering memories of places, names, and events. inspired by these powerful moments of recollection, the Arts Council is honored to announce that reproductions of Romus’ collages will be displayed throughout his beloved neighborhood beginning next week. and in the meantime, we’re proud to be a location, displaying three banners right here at the ACP.

this public art project our way of honoring Romus after he passed in 2020, keeping his work alive for generations to come. keep your eyes peeled for a map of where you can see more, and join us in thanking our partners who helped make this dream a reality: Special Collections, Firestone Library at @princeton, Joint Effort Safe Streets, Witherspoon-Jackson Historical & Cultural Society, Witherspoon-Jackson Neighborhood Association, and most importantly, the family and friends of Romus Broadway.
