Not Just Marsh Plants New Haven (Google Maps location) August 4, 2010 I went to a lot of places on August 4, 2010. It was my one day per year I purposely take off from work in order to visit as many weekday-only joints and I was on the go all day. I went to a few places you wouldn't necessarily call museums, … [Read more...]
PhotoSynthesis Gallery
Down the Dark Alleys of Manchester* PhotoSynthesis Gallery, Manchester November 2010 *Photosynthesis moved to East Hartford and I revisited, at bottom, in 2019. This was Connecticut museum visit #197. What a day. A surprise visit from EdHill, a hastily thrown together itinerary, A fairly well-behaved Damian, … [Read more...]
199. Abbey of Regina Laudis Crèche
I’m Not a Prayer, I Just Crèche A Lot Bethlehem (Google Maps location) December 4, 2010 Thank you, thank you. I’ve had a lot of rather excellent titles over the years, but this may be my favorite. It just stinks that most people over the age of 50 or so won’t get the reference. Oh well; their loss. (Another … [Read more...]
198. Governor’s Residence
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...]
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...]
CT High School Coaches Assoc. Hall of Fame
I waited 5 years for this?! Hartford (Google Maps location) August 14, 2010 For the first time in 184 museums I'm at a loss for words. I really have nothing to say about the Connecticut High School Coaches Hall of Fame. Though shouldn't it be "Coaches'?" It's their Hall of Fame, right? But as you'll see in … [Read more...]
160. Silverman’s Animal Farm
Go Easton Young Man Easton (Google Maps location) April 10, 2010 For some unknown reason, I originally had this place written up as a non-museum and filed it away in the hinterlands of CTMQ. I don't know what I was thinking as this place (for our purposes) is a great little zoo (of sorts) to take your kids too. … [Read more...]
ArtPlace at Yale Physician’s Building
You Need Guts to Go Here… Um, No You Don’t New Haven (Google Maps location) August 2010 Connecticut museum visit #177. I'm not sure how much the School promotes this anymore, but from what I can find, they do still have rotating exhibits. However, this isn't something I would consider a "museum" to visit and … [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...]
171. Urban Museum of Modern Architecture (6 of 7)
When a No-Longer Non-Museum Museum is Still a Museum To Me Seven Buildings, New Haven Various Dates Dec 2010 Update: I received a comment on an old museum page about the modernist Knights of Columbus Museum from a woman representing the New Haven Preservation Trust who says that a survey is being done in 2010 … [Read more...]
