Enjoyed a wonderful tour today with museum director Sophie Huget and board member Randall Judd. Thank you for sharing some of your wonderful collection with me.
Very helpful and enthusiastic staff and an interesting collection. My only complaint is I wish it was bigger!
A tremendously special place! Here, a proud heritage is represented in a meaningful collection, and woven together with a tale of rising innovation — all of which serves as an important guide for tomorrow.
I love it. Always brings back a lot of memories.
Awesome place indeed! Great collection!
I really loved this this hidden gem! My son and I learned so much of New Britain's industrial history through the wonderful items displayed and detailed knowledge expressed by the museum director. Thank you very much Karen!
