Questions or comments on any posts should be directed to the Town of Clinton Municipal Building at 908-735-8616. Clinton is a town in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, United States, located on the South Branch of the Raritan River. As of the 2010 United States Census, the town's population was 2,719

When the Clinton post office was established in 1829, it was named for DeWitt Clinton, Governor of New York and the primary impetus behind the then-newly completed Erie Canal.[19]

Clinton was incorporated as a town by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on April 5, 1865, within portions of Clinton, Franklin and Union Townships. Clinton gained full independence from its three parent townships in 1895.[20]

The town is perhaps best known for its two mills which sit on opposite banks of the South Branch Raritan River. The Red Mill, with its historic village, dates back to 1810 with the development of a mill for wool processing.[21] Across the river sits the Stone Mill, home of the Hunterdon Art Museum for Contemporary Craft and Design, located in a former gristmill that had been reconstructed in 1836 and operated continuously until 1952, when a group of local residents conceived of a plan to convert the historic building into a museum.

The event will celebrate 35 years of the Haunted Mill at Red Mill Museum Village, a longstanding Halloween tradition that has attracted visitors to Clinton for generations. All Hallows on the River will complement our popular Pumpkin Fest, taking place Friday evening, October 23, giving residents and visitors another opportunity to enjoy Clinton as a destination for all things Halloween.

All Hallows on the River — Sunday, October 25
Main Street will be closed to traffic for a family-friendly afternoon block party featuring activities for all ages, including:

• 🎃 The Great Pumpkin Display, featuring carved pumpkins from Friday's Pumpkin Fest
• 🧙‍♀️ Costume Promenade for People & Pets through downtown
• 🐴 Clydesdale Carriage Rides
• 🍬 Trunk or Treat
• 🎸 Live Music from Clinton Music Studios
• 🎨 Pumpkin Painting and Face Painting
• 📸 Halloween Photo Stations

As the afternoon draws to a close, the carved pumpkins from Pumpkin Fest will be illuminated in a special display along the river.
Trunk or Treat — Participants Welcome - We invite Clinton residents, families, community organizations and local businesses to take part in Trunk or Treat by decorating a vehicle and distributing treats to children.
