TITANIC: THE ARTIFACT EXHIBITION SAILS INTO LIBERTY SCIENCE CENTER
WITH STORIES AND REAL ARTIFACTS FROM THE ICONIC SHIP ON FEBRUARY 15
The Interactive Exhibition Features Authentic Jewelry, Fixtures
and Other Genuine Artifacts from the Legendary Vessel
JERSEY CITY, NJ. – February 3, 2025 – All aboard! Liberty Science Center will take visitors back in time
to the year 1912 and the fateful voyage of the Titanic when TITANIC: The Artifact Exhibition opens
Friday, February 15. The interactive exhibition features more than 130 real artifacts recovered from
the “unsinkable” ship’s resting place in the North Atlantic Ocean.
Upon entry, visitors will receive a replica boarding pass and assume the role of an actual passenger
from the maiden, and last, voyage, while following the journey of life on Titanic, from the Ship’s
construction to life on board and all the way to the infamous sinking. Also covered in the exhibition is
the effort to recover thousands of artifacts and the conservation of the wreckage site for scientific
analysis and historical preservation, ensuring that future generations will continue to learn from the
Titanic.
“A seminal moment in world history, people continue to be amazed more than a century later by the
story of the Titanic’s ill-fated journey to New York City,” said Paul Hoffman, President and CEO of
Liberty Science Center. “Visitors can take in the majestic nature of the Ship, learn the science behind
why it sank, and discover exactly how the artifacts have been recovered and preserved for all this
time.”
Featured throughout the exhibition are re-created rooms from the Titanic, jewelry and clothing
accessories brought aboard by passengers, and other genuine artifacts such as champagne bottles,
chandeliers, and the logometer, which was used to track the distance the ship travelled each day and
still shows the reading from the night she went down. Ideal for all ages, the exhibition also features a
7-foot-tall replica of an iceberg, giving a physical example of the temperatures the passengers faced.
TITANIC: The Artifact Exhibition is a premium exhibition, requiring an additional ticket along with
purchase of Science Center admission. For more information, please visit LSC.org.
