New History at the Mattatuck

After 20 years, the history exhibit at the Mattatuck Museum has been taken down and replaced with something spectacular! The new exhibit tells the story of Waterbury and the region up to the present day. It includes open storage cases, bringing hundreds of collection objects out where you can see them. Familiar stories are told in new ways. A variety of technologies, from state-of-the-art to tried-and-true, allow you to explore in-depth or just plain have fun (there's something for nearly all ages).

Opening day is this Saturday, with free admission all day long, and a ribbon cutting ceremony at 11am.
