For the Hard Corps Museum Fan Stafford (Google Maps location) June 20, 2015 CT Museum #296 As I begin writing about this place, I can’t get the thought out of my head that it’s probably on the state budget chopping block.

Dehn Gallery (Closed)
DEHN-DEH-DEHHHHHNNNN! Dehn Gallery, Manchester December 2016 MCC's Dehn Gallery closed in 2019. The space was converted to Work_Space, a co-working and meeting space which also contains three tiny art galleries if you care to check that out. I don't.

Enfield Athletic Hall of Fame
EnField of Dreams Enfield (Google Maps location) December 2016 CT museum visit #338. Easiest punned title ever? Certainly one of them, yes.

Horizon Wings Raptor Rehab Center
”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.
