Summer at the Museum 🗓

Event Date : 2023 Jul Sat

Thank you to the State of Connecticut and the Connecticut Humanities Council for this opportunity! It has been a complete success by helping more children and their parents experience CT. Freedom Trail and Amsitad history.

The Farmington Historical Society was recently awarded a grant in the amount of $1000 from Connecticut Humanities to support our participation in the CT Summer at the Museum initiative. 

The program invites Connecticut children ages 18 and under plus one accompanying Connecticut resident adult to visit participating museums free of charge from July 1 through September 4, 2023. Funding for the initiative is provided by the CT General Assembly, with the support of Connecticut Humanities and the Department of Economic and Community Development, Office of the Arts, which also receives support from the federal ARPA.

The CT Summer at the Museum program was extremely successful in the summer of 2022, with museums throughout the state hosting hundreds of thousands of children, many of whom would not otherwise be able to afford admission. 

Please join us on our Freedom Trail/Amistad Tours this summer. You will enjoy walking , learning and experiencing a Farmington you have never seen! Dates and information at: https://fhs-ct.org/?p=371
