To lead the commemoration period beginning in 2022, the National Park Service commissioned the nationally recognized New York artist, musician, and author Xiomaro (pronounced See-oh-ma-ro) to create fine art photographs of the park's key features: the Ford Mansion, Jockey Hollow, and the Cross Estate Mansion/New Jersey Bridge area.
