One Rell of a Good Time Hartford (Google Maps location) December 4, 2010 I’ve made mention before about how I get a little thrill out of getting to visit rarely open museums (or in this case, museum-like things). Each time I do feels like a big win for me. I’ve had the Governor’s Residence on my CTMQ radar for … [Read more...]
124. Cyrenius H. Booth Library & Museum
Old Stuff in a Newtown Newtown (Google Maps location) July 13, 2009 As I begin to write this page, I’m trying to remember how I came to learn of the fact that they call this library a museum. Or at least partly a museum. My own wonders never cease. Of course, there are several seemington normal libraries … [Read more...]
162. Westport History Museum
Oh, Like You Wouldn’t Kiss Paul Newman Westport (Google Maps location) April 10, 2010 Wow, the Westport Historical Society has done a bang-up job on their page about this small museum, adjacent to the much larger Wheeler House Museum across the small driveway. It’s almost like I don’t have to write anything myself … [Read more...]
174. ArtSpace Hartford
ArtSpaaaaaace Cowboys Hartford (Google Maps location) July 16, 2010 This would be one of the things you’re reading here on CTMQ because I recently (spring/summer 2010) expanded what my own definition of museum was to me. All Hartford ArtSpace is is a large empty room that the artists who live in the ugly loft … [Read more...]
194. Tremaine Gallery at the Hotchkiss School
Beautiful Litchfield County Never Looked So Beautiful Salisbury (Google Maps location) October 9, 2010 I love Salisbury. In fact, I wouldn’t mind living up there at all. Oh sure, it’s pretentious and everyone drives Volvos and Audis, but that’s no different from where I live now in West Hartford. Salisbury is … [Read more...]
175. Sherwood Island State Park Nature Center
Wanna Go to the Nature Center? I Sher Wood! Westport (Google Maps location) July 18, 2010 CTMQ's Sherwood Island State Park Intro I purposely waited until autumn to write about Sherwood Island. I figure that anyone looking for a very clean, uncrowded and very pretty beach in Connecticut won’t find this now … [Read more...]
177. ArtPlace at Yale Physician’s Building
You Need Guts to Go Here… Um, No You Don’t New Haven (Google Maps location) August 4, 2010 No, this isn’t a museum. Not even close. But since I recently opened up my CTMQ definitions to include non-commercial galleries, I’ve been able to check out some interesting and different types of what I still loosely … [Read more...]
Real Art Ways
Kevin Van Ael-some Hartford (Google Maps location) August 5, 2010 I’m a lucky dude. No, not only because I’m so gosh-darn handsome, but also because I get to meet a lot of really cool and talented people along the CTMQ-way. Sure, I’ve been on the teevee and in several newspapers and magazines, but it’s still … [Read more...]
176. Connecticut Commission on Culture & Tourism Gallery
What's the Real Mission of This Commission? Hartford (Google Maps location - Welcome to Hartford. We don't do "addresses" at Const. Plaza) July 28, 2010 I've now been to two exhibits at the CCT gallery in downtown Hartford and both have been very well curated and absolutely interesting. I cannot be more positive … [Read more...]
168. Hall Memorial Library Exhibits
All Hail Hallowed Hall at Hall Ellington (Google Maps location) May 19, 2010 Somewhere along the CTMQ way, after readers kept pushing me to check out various libraries around the state for various reasons, I finally began to poke around what they have to offer. It’s a sketchy can of worms to open up for a few … [Read more...]
