103. Cogswell Heritage House (ASD History Museum)
Deaf Jam West Hartford (Google Maps Location) May 28, 2009 2019 Update: I see that this place is now called The Alice Cogswell Heritage House. Certain museums give me that little burst that keeps me excited to continue this website. They are usually ones like this one: Small(ish), singularly devoted, … [Read more...]
145. District No. 1 Schoolhouse
No Matter How Bad Their Team, They’re Still Number 1 Bethlehem (Google Maps Location) December 5, 2009 As you can imagine, it is indeed rare for me to find out about a museum I was unaware of. It is far more rare to find one while driving around doing other stuff. And it is exceedingly rare to find one while … [Read more...]
130. Buz Russell’s Farm and Rural Life Museum
Let's Generate some Buz For This Museum Woodbury (Google Maps Location) July 24, 2009 I always feel cheap when the title pun is so easy. Oh well, I'll get over it. What I'll never get over is how many museums there are in Connecticut and that feeling of elation I still get when discovering ones I didn't know … [Read more...]
138. Hartford Medical Society Historical Library
Make No Bones About It... It's Back! Farmington (Google Maps Location) September 10, 2009 The waffling is over. I'm giving this place its own pedestal to stand on as a separate museum visit. Sure, the collection is pretty much a scaled down version of a previously visited museum, but I think it's important to … [Read more...]
114. Thomas J. Walsh Art Gallery
A Quick One Fairfield (Google Maps Location) June 13, 2009 Oh man. I'm busted. Busted, busted, busted. You see, with art museums I rely heavily upon their websites to better be able to describe the collections semi-intelligently. So far, I've been able to "get by" via this method. However, as I sit here … [Read more...]
129. Flanders Nature Center
Sadly, No Rod or Todd in Sight Woodbury (Google Maps Location) July 24, 2009 Casual readers of CTMQ can be forgiven for thinking all of our adventures with Damian are wonderfully happy little trips through the tulips. Unfortunately, this is not always the case - I tend to focus on the good stuff here and of … [Read more...]
128. Brookfield Nature Center and Rock Museum
Hellooooo Broooookfield! Brookfield (Google Maps Location) July 20, 2009 I'd recently been doing some hikes out in western Connecticut in the New Milford-Brookfield-Bridgewater area. I'd stumbled upon a few heretofore unknown museums on my forays back home in Roxbury and Woodbury - pretty much the most exciting … [Read more...]
93. William Benton Museum of Art
A Real Bento(n) Box of a Museum Storrs February 25, 2009 The William Benton Museum is a Connecticut Art Trail site. I'd been to one of Yale's two large art museums and a couple smaller galleries at Wesleyan. I wondered how our state's flagship public university would stack up? Actually, I didn't wonder … [Read more...]
123. Connecticut Women’s Hall of Fame
These Girls Done Good... For Girls Traveling Exhibit April 8, 2009 If you're paying close attention, you'll notice this visit is a bit out of order. That's because when I stumbled upon it at a writer's conference at Tunxis Community College (where I took in museum number 97), I didn't really think it warranted … [Read more...]
