Connecticut Museum of Culture and History

Join us for a presentation by a leading scholar of early America about the legacy of the Declaration of Independence.
In this talk, historian Michael D. Hattem asks: why have Americans developed such an emotional connection to the nation’s founding for nearly 250 years? He will discuss the importance of how generations of Americans have told the story of the Revolution, how politics have shaped how the Revolution has been remembered, and how Americans have fought over the meanings and legacy of the Revolution for nearly 250 years. In doing so, he will explain why the American Revolution has had such a unique place in the nation’s politics and culture.
Be sure to come early before the event to browse our special exhibition, Rebellious, which reflects on moments throughout Connecticut history when its people came together, pushed back, and sparked change to pursue their own visions of life, liberty, and happiness in America.
This event is presented in partnership with the Association for the Study of Connecticut History (ASCH) and is free to attend for ASCH members! To learn more about ASCH, visit their website.

Step into the historic Mark Twain House for an evening where poetry and tarot intertwine. Poet Laureate of Glastonbury Victoria Nordlund will guide you in creating original poems inspired by the iconic Rider-Waite Tarot Deck and the gorgeous Gilded Age rooms of Mark Twain’s Hartford mansion. This workshop welcomes writers of all levels. All workshops involve writing in the historic house itself, so tickets are extremely limited.
Tickets: $35; $20 for museum members. Hartford residents with SNAP/EBT cards can access $7.50 tickets by sending a photo of their card to <a href="mailto:reservations@marktwainhouse.org">reservations@marktwainhouse.org</a>.
Add-on option: Add a personal 15-minute tarot reading before or after the workshop for $25 and receive your own Rider-Waite deck to use and take home (indicate before/after at checkout; the museum follows up with a timeslot).
Accessibility note: A portion of this workshop takes place on the third floor; the house does not have an elevator, so participants must be able to climb stairs to participate fully.<a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/165061/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets</a> &amp; More info
