”Take... These Broken Wings” Horizon Wings Raptor Rehab Center, Ashford (Location) April 2016 Connecticut museum visit #315. No, this isn¹t a museum and no, they don¹t call themselves one.

312. Westport Arts Center
This Place is WAC Westport (Google Maps location) March 26, 2016 In September 2019, the arts center moved to a new, much larger location and is now called MoCa Westport. As it's an entirely different place, I will create a separate page when I visit. I have this crazy idea that taking kids to art exhibits is … [Read more...]
Powder Hill Dinosaur Park
"If The Shoe Fits, It Must Be From Footprints" Powder Hill Dinosaur Park, Middlefield (Location) January 2016 Connecticut museum visit #309. Of course this isn’t a museum.

New England Muscle Bicycle Museum (Closed)
This Place is Bananas! Bloomfield (Closed) May 7, 2011 Since I can only assume you've all read the hundreds of other museum visit pages that I've written, I want to let you know at the outset here that this one will be a bit different than most of the others. For one, this museum no longer exists as it did in … [Read more...]
Mystic Aquarium
Lion(fish) and Tiger(sharks), Oh My! Mystic section of Stonington (Google Maps Location) October 11, 2007, etc. I've been to the Aquarium a few times since the initial visit that most of this page is based upon - and have gained a greater appreciation for it over the years.

242. Yale Center for British Art
Right, Then. Jolly Good. New Haven (Google Maps location) November 9, 2012 The Yale Center for British Art is a Connecticut Art Trail site. Spoiler Alert: When coupled with the neighboring Yale University Art Gallery, you simply can’t find a better day of art in Connecticut. Oh yeah, both are F-R-E-E, free, … [Read more...]
Harry C. Barnes Memorial Nature Center
Ain't No Party Like an Owl Party Bristol (Google Maps Location) November 22, 2015 You people have no idea. I have been waiting nearly ten years for this place to reopen. Not that I necessarily had high hopes for it or that I'm a huge Harry C. Barnes fan - it was more the principle of the thing. Back in … [Read more...]
297. The Genius Museum
Gateway... to The Next Gateway Montville (Google Maps location) July 10, 2015 In 2018-19, the Gateway Museum expanded a bit and they changed the name. It is now the Genius Museum and if I want to be thorough, I suppose I should revisit at some point to view the expansion. I'll start off as I often have to do; … [Read more...]
303. GEHMS Planetarium
Spacing Out Glastonbury (Google Maps location) October 10, 2015 This cool little planetarium ignited a heated debate in my house. I mentioned that I would be including it as a museum visit for this website, and my wife roundly chastised me for that. “It’s a planetarium. It’s not a museum.” “I know. But … [Read more...]
299. The New Britain Police Museum
A Real Hard Hittin’ Museum New Britain (Google Maps location) August 8, 2015 I can’t even pretend this is a real museum. Keep in mind who just wrote that. I’m the guy that accepts pretty much anything as a museum that calls itself a museum. I’ve been to some very, very tiny museums in Connecticut. … [Read more...]
