SUMMARY:Tavern Talks at Connecticut Museum of Culture and History
DESCRIPTION:Step into the social world of early Connecticut during Tavern Talks at the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History. \nHeld on Tuesday afternoons throughout the summer\, this gallery talk explores the fascinating history behind the museum’s collection of historic tavern signs displayed in the Auditorium. These signs once hung outside bustling taverns that served as important gathering places where people met to eat\, drink\, celebrate\, debate politics\, conduct business\, gamble\, dance\, and socialize. \nDuring the 30-minute program\, visitors will learn how to interpret the symbols and imagery featured on these distinctive signs and discover why so few examples have survived into the present day. The talk offers a unique glimpse into everyday life in early Connecticut and the role taverns played in shaping local communities. \nTavern Talks takes place from 2 pm to 2:30 pm at the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History\, 1 Elizabeth Street\, Hartford\, CT 06105. The program is included with regular museum admission\, and no advance registration is required. \nGuests interested in accessibility accommodations\, including ASL interpretation\, are encouraged to contact the museum in advance. Questions may be directed to Natalie Belanger\, Public Programs Manager\, at nbelanger@connecticutmuseum.org. \nFor additional information\, visit https://www.connecticutmuseum.org/event/tavern-talks-3/all/.
