Museum of Darien Participates in CT Open House with Free Craft Project

The Museum of Darien is participating in a CT Statewide Open House, featuring local artist, Jane Mossa from Pink Rhubarb. All ages are welcome to visit the Museum on Saturday, June 8th, from 12-3pm, for this free event. Guest artist, Jane Mossa, will lead a drop in printmaking project inspired from MoD’s colonial herb and flower garden. Participants of all ages will transfer early summer flowers to paper to create simple prints that can be used as note cards or artwork. Ongoing tours of the Bates-Scofield House will also take place, with teen docents dressed in period costume who will educate and delight all who love history. Find out more at museumofdarien.org. The Museum of Darien is located at 45 Old King’s Highway in Darien, CT. For questions, call (203) 655-9233.
