SUMMARY:The Art of Elizabeth Catlett: From the Collection of Samella Lewis at Mattatuck Museum
DESCRIPTION:The Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury presents The Art of Elizabeth Catlett: From the Collection of Samella Lewis\, on view from April 6 through June 15\, 2025. This compelling exhibition features 38 works by Elizabeth Catlett (1915–2012)\, one of the most influential Black artists of the 20th century.

These works\, drawn from the collection of fellow artist and scholar Samella Lewis\, highlight Catlett’s impact on political movements and personal lives alike. \nThis exhibition is organized by Landau Traveling Exhibitions\, Los Angeles\, and supported by Post University. \nThe Mattatuck Museum is located at 144 West Main Street\, Waterbury\, Connecticut.

SUMMARY:The Art of Leisure at the Mattatuck Museum
DESCRIPTION:The Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury presents The Art of Leisure\, on view in the Noonan Gallery from April 12 through June 15\, 2025. This wide-ranging exhibition spans more than 125 years of American history\, highlighting how artists and the public have captured and celebrated the themes of travel\, relaxation\, and recreation. \nBeginning in the mid-nineteenth century\, advances in transportation and growing access to public spaces transformed how Americans spent their free time.

The exhibition is open Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays through May). Hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm\, and Sunday from 11 am to 4 pm. \nAdmission is $15 for adults\, $12 for seniors\, $10 for college students with ID\, and $8 for children ages 5–18.
