What made our visit special was the personalized tour and activities they had for our first grade class. I still would have enjoyed it very much on my own. Lots of interesting Native American artifacts and reproductions. Kids can sit in a handmade canoe.

Use your hands to explore connecticuts history. This is a great place for visitors and children. It is very hands on. They have an exhibit on the amistad. They also have a sports exhibit. They have a children area. The gift shop is great. X rating 9.9

While in Hartford doing research on my family tree, we decided to also view the museum housed in the same building. I wish we had an entire day to view the exhibits. The Katherine Hepburn costumes were amazing ( such a tiny waist!!) and will be there on display until September. There are many hand-on activities that would appeal to children. This museum has something for everybody and is very well done.

Wow, took my kiddo for a special event they had for home-school kids. Wonderful experience. Had good little break-out sessions. Exhibits in the museum are interactive and hands-on. Even interesting for adults. Lots of things to touch and buttons to press. Can dress up like a colonial child, sit in a dug-out canoe, make an Native American shoe, etc. Also have changing exhibits of art. Have a great genealogical library with books and original documents. Librarian was super nice and let me take photos of some original documents and letters from my family line. Don't forget the student discount gets you in for $4.

If you had ancestors from Connecticut or Massacusetts you must visit this place to look up your genealogy family tree.

Such a lovely experience! The Katharine Hepburn exhibit was such an exquisite tribute to a beautiful actress. The staff was friendly and helpful the entire afternoon. I especially loved the public tour. I look forward to visiting the museum again with my family.

This is a great place to stop and spend a few hours looking at the various historical exhibits of CT in the past. The hands on exhibits for the kids were wonderful - they had a play kitchen with all sorts of things for the kids to play with, they could dress up i different outfits from the past, and had many interesting exhibits for all ages. We were a party of 6 - and it kept us busy for 2 hours. Our grandchild is only 3 and she was fascinated with many of the hands on exhibits.I would have liked to see more on the native americans we displaced.

This is a lovely restored mansion. The stair case is a marvel. the Katharine Hepburn costumes were on exhibit and well worth the trip.There is a small gift shop. Photos were not allowed. The grounds are lovely. Plenty of parking and buses can pull up to the front.

I spent a good portion of my Saturday afternoon here. I had plenty of time to enjoy the current exhibits including Hartford Seen, The Hartford Courant, Building Hartford, as well as the permanent exhibits including the Veeder Living Room, Making Connecticut, and Inn & Tavern Signs. I also got to spend time in their research room and received plenty of one on one assistance from one of the many friendly and courteous staffers. The mansion that everything is housed in is lovely. I was also impressed with how many hands on activities there were to try out for adults and children alike.
