THE DURAND HEDDEN HOUSE - Maplewood’s Historic House Museum
523 Ridgewood Road, Maplewood NJ

Chef Jesse's culinary DNA was developed during childhood summers in North Carolina, where his grandmother's cast iron stove was the source of many memorable food experiences. Today, he continues to be influenced by her legacy, bridging past and present through interpreting classic southern dishes with French techniques. At Durand-Hedden he will explore these traditions with an engaging demonstration and presentation.

Visitors also can view an exhibit about African Americans who fought to get women the right to vote.

Masks and either proof of vaccination or a negative test are required to enter any of Maplewood’s Community Buildings
