MAY OPEN HOUSE & SPECIAL EXHIBIT:
Every Sunday in May 11:00 – 3:00 at the Andrews Homestead, 424 W. Main St. Meriden CT, sharing a parking lot with the Benjamin Franklin School.
Our May exhibit will be in conjunction with the Spring Tea Party being held on Saturday May 5th. The following day, May 6th will be the start of the Sunday exhibits that will feature a selection of items made by Meriden companies, related to the serving of tea.
Best of all, changes have been happening inside the Homestead. We have been going through our inventory and have discovered some impressive items that have been stored away for much too long. We’re really excited about showing off our restocked and reorganized displays for this exhibit.
If you are a new member this year, please mention that when you come to the exhibit. We have a special gift for you. Come and enjoy.
