Family Program: Birthday Bash

Celebrate the Museum’s 200th birthday with a party full of crafts, games, treats, and the launch of our brand new children’s book, The Key to Adventure!

Inspired by items from the Museum’s collection, this book brings Connecticut history to life through the eyes of an adventurous little girl named Prudence. Step into this imaginative world in an immersive exhibit-on-wheels created in partnership with cARTie, a traveling art museum on a bus. Then, search for the real objects that inspired this book with a scavenger hunt through the Museum. Join us for a story time on the top of every hour, followed by a book signing with the author, Rebecca Gavin, and illustrator Mya Concepcion, both members of our educational staff here at the Museum.

Each family in attendance will receive one free copy of The Key to Adventure to take home!

This event is free and open to the public. Get tickets in advance to reserve your family’s spot: Ticket link coming soon.
