Riḍván Festival

Baha’i communities worldwide celebrate their most sacred festival, Riḍván, which takes from the end of April to the beginning of May each year. This event commemorates the 12 days that Baha’u’llah spent on the banks of the Tigris River in Baghdad in 1863, during which He declared His mission as God’s Messenger for a new age and revealed the spiritual principles that are the foundation of His teachings.

The name “Ridvan” means “paradise,” and during the 12 days, Baha’i communities come together to celebrate this joyous occasion.

9th Day of Riḍván Celebraton

Join us for a tour of the Watson House. Built by Isaac and Joanna Watson in 1708, the Watson House is recognized as the oldest house in Mercer County. Originally set on 800 acres, the home is situated on a bluff overlooking Watson’s Creek in John A. Roebling Park. The property and home reflect the layered history of colonial settlement and Indigenous heritage, offering insights into early architecture, colonial life, and pre-colonial communities. Today, the house serves as the headquarters of the New Jersey State Society of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
