SUMMARY:Sarah Treadwell: Connecticut Mom\, American Patriot at Weston History & Culture Center
DESCRIPTION:A new exhibition exploring the life and legacy of a Revolutionary War-era Connecticut woman will be on view from May 9 through July 30\, 2026 at the Weston History & Culture Center\, 104 Weston Road\, Weston\, CT 06883. Parking and entrance are accessible from High Acre Road through the Visitor’s Center. \nSarah Treadwell: Connecticut Mom\, American Patriot highlights the story of Sarah Treadwell and the important yet often overlooked role women played during the American Revolution. Through personal history and historical context\, the exhibit explores Sarah’s resilience as a wife\, mother\, and community member while her family took an active role in the fight for independence. \nVisitors will learn about daily life during and after the Revolutionary War\, the experiences of veterans and widows navigating the pension process\, and the challenges faced by families living in the North Fairfield area\, which later became Weston and Easton. The exhibit also sheds light on the broader contributions women made to sustaining homes and communities during America’s founding years. \nCurated by Mark Brennan with research assistance from the Historical Society of Easton\, the exhibition is funded in part by a grant from Connecticut Humanities in recognition of America’s 250th anniversary. \nThe exhibit is open during public hours every Thursday from 1 pm to 4 pm and on the first and last Sunday of each month from 1 pm to 4 pm. The museum is closed on holidays and holiday weekends. \nFor more information\, visit westoncthistory.org.

SUMMARY:Connecticut Ballet presents: Giselle at The Bushnell
DESCRIPTION:Connecticut Ballet closes its 45th season with a performance of Giselle on June 20\, 2026 at 7:30 pm at The Bushnell. The production runs approximately 2 hours\, including an 18-minute intermission. \nConsidered one of ballet’s greatest romantic tragedies\, Giselle tells the story of a young woman betrayed by a nobleman and transformed into one of the Wilis\, supernatural spirits who seek revenge after dying before their wedding day. Since its 1841 premiere\, the ballet has remained one of the most celebrated works in classical dance. \nSet to the iconic score by Adolphe Adam\, the production stars Oksana Maslova\, principal dancer with the Philadelphia Ballet\, in the title role. Maslova previously debuted as Giselle with Connecticut Ballet in 2014 and appeared as the Sugar Plum Fairy in the company’s recent production of The Nutcracker.

While generally appropriate for families\, the story includes themes involving death and supernatural spirits. \nGroup ticket pricing is available for parties of 10 or more by calling 860-987-5959 or emailing groups@bushnell.org. \nFor tickets and additional information\, visit The Bushnell
