From Newark Airport vicinity - Garden State Parkway, NJ Turnpike, etc.

• Proceed on Interstate 78 West.
• Exit from Interstate 78 toward Morristown onto NJ Route 24.
• Exit from NJ Route 24 at the NJ Route 124 West/Chatham exit, exit number 7A. Because this area is rather confusing, be careful to watch signs and avoid taking an incorrect ramp. From NJ Route 124 there is a ramp for exits 7B and 7A (labeled "Exits 7B-A") - this dumps you on the service road. Once on the service road, exit 7A is the second ramp (after the River Road ramp).
• Immediately upon merging with traffic from JFK Parkway, you will take the next exit for NJ Route 124 West/Chatham.
• Proceed on NJ Route 124 (also called Main Street and Madison Avenue) westbound for approximately 2.9 miles, to the fourteenth (14) traffic light.
• At the twelfth (12) traffic light you must bear to the left at the fork. This will take you under the train overpass. If you have lost count of the lights, this is near the Museum of Early Trades and Crafts and after you have passed through most of the "downtown" area of Madison.
• The fourteenth (14) light is at the intersection of Madison Avenue (the road you are on) and Elm Street/Lancaster Road.
• Turn left onto Lancaster Road - this is the main entrance to the Drew University campus.
• Parking is available in the main lot (ahead and somewhat to the left, past the "check stop") or in the lot near the "check stop" (turn right just after passing the "check stop").
• Great Hall is less than a 1/4 mile walk from the main lot. Follow the signs for the F.M. Kirby center, then continue past that center heading east (the same direction you've been heading). Great Hall is in the rather gothic-looking building on the right. Enter through the farther door and go up the stairs.

From Summit and vicinity

• The best route is to get onto NJ Route 24 and follow the directions above for "From Newark Airport vicinity".
• If you are coming from the west edge of town, following River Road north/east, you will follow signs toward Madison and NJ Route 24 West just before you reach the Short Hills Mall. Follow this ramp around onto the service road and then watch for exit 7A, as decribed above.
• There are some other routes (e.g., Southern Boulevard northbound) through Chatham and Madison) that may be more convenient. Consult a map for additional details.

From Millburn, Livingston and vicinity

• The best route is to get onto NJ Route 24 west and follow the directions above for "From Newark Airport vicinity".
• If you are coming from the west edge of town, following JFK Parkway south, you will follow signs toward Madison and Chatham and enter NJ Route 124 (Main Street in Chatham) directly - this occurs in the area of the Short Hills Mall.
• There are some other routes (e.g., Passaic Avenue or Ridgedale Avenue) through Chatham and Madison) that may be more convenient. Consult a map for additional details.

From Morristown and points North, South or West

• Proceed on Interstate 287 to Exit 35.
• If coming from the North, this will be the Madison Avenue exit. At the end of the ramp (at the light), make a left onto Madison Avenue.
• If coming from the South, this will be the South Street exit. At the end of the ramp (at the light), make a left onto South Street. Proceed in the right-hand lane and use the next exit, following the signs for the Hospital and Route 124 East. At the end of this little street, make a right onto Madison Avenue at the stop sign.
• Once on Madison Avenue (also called Main Street and NJ Route 124), proceed approximately 3 miles to the eighth (8) traffic light.
• At the third light, be careful to bear right at the fork in the road. This is easily identifiable as the intersection where the Friendly's restaurant is.
• At the seventh light, be careful not to accidentally exit onto Loantaka Way.
• At the eighth (8) traffic light, turn right onto Lancaster Road/Elm Street - this is the main entrance to the Drew University campus.
• Parking is available in the main lot (ahead and somewhat to the left, past the "check stop") or in the lot near the "check stop" (turn right just after passing the "check stop").
• Great Hall is less than a 1/4 mile walk from the main lot. Follow the signs for the F.M. Kirby center, then continue past that center heading east (the same direction you've been heading).
