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...]

Museum Visits
This website began as Connecticut MuseumQuest in 2006 and only later became CTMQ. Regardless, museums were and are the core of what I do. And fortunately for all of us, Connecticut has a ton of museums - two tons if you define them loosely like I do. Also, see the CTMQ Town Guides: everything to do in the state … [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...]
101. Action Wildlife Foundation
Lights! Camera! Action Wildlife! Um... Camera? Goshen (Google Maps Location) April 25, 2009 This website depends mightily on pictures. Even though they are generally terrible, they give those who just scan these long-winded posts something to look at, I actually use them to frame the story. Since I hardly ever … [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...]
Waterbury Button Museum
This Museum is as Cute as a ... Waterbury (Google Maps Location) August 2009 CT Museum #135 When you're the third smallest state in the US and you still manage to cram in so many hundreds of museums, it stands to reason that a good percentage of them will be tiny. I've seen my share - and can't determine which … [Read more...]
New Britain Youth Museum/ Hungerford Park
We Hunger Ford More Youth Museum! Kensington/Berlin (Google Maps Location) April 15, 2009 Update: This place is now known as Hungerford Nature Center. This was Connecticut museum visit #98. Tax day. And what could be more taxing than corralling Damian at a museum without Hoang to lend a hand? (Eh, it's not … [Read more...]
Dinosaur State Park Museum
Dino-Mite! Dinosaur State Park Museum, Rocky Hill (Google Maps Location) April 2009 (First visit) Connecticut museum visit #96. For my page on the Dinosaur State Park trails, go here. If you just want the National Natural Landmark, go here. And if you're only into the arboretum, go here. But if you're here to … [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...]
