SUMMARY:PERFORMANCE | American Contemporary Dances with The Hartford Dance Collective
DESCRIPTION:Purchase Tickets\n\n  \nJoin us in the intimate Webb barn for the Museum’s first commissioned dance performance! Experience dance in-the-round\, featuring new and established works by The Hartford Dance Collective. Rooted in themes of female empowerment\, the dances explore strength\, resilience\, and self-expression through bold physicality and nuanced storytelling. Inspired by America’s 250th anniversary\, the Collective enriches the story of our nation’s founding by amplifying women’s voices and experiences. Surrounded by history and audience alike\, the dancers invite viewers into a shared space where past and present converge—where the courage to claim one’s voice echoes the spirit of those who shaped a new nation within these very walls. \nAbout This Commission In commissioning this work\, the Museum celebrates both a milestone and a continuation: bringing contemporary artists into dialogue with a site where questions of identity\, purpose\, and collective future have always lived. \nPERFORMANCE | Friday\, May 8\, 7 PM \n\n5:30 PM | VIP Ticketholders Talkback with Hartford Dance Collective\n6:15 PM | Doors open\n6:15-7:00 PM | Cash bar available\, furnished by Vino Crudo\n7:00 PM | Performance in-the-round\n\nTICKETS | $18 / $25 / $30 / $45 \nStudents (16-22) | $18 \nMembers | $25 \nGeneral Admission | $30 \nInner Circle VIP | $45 \n\n\n\nPremiere seating: first two rows\nPre-performance talk-back with dancers and choreographers of Hartford Dance Collective\nEarly-admission\nReserved Parking\nAccess to one open rehearsal (April TBD)\n\n\n\nHartford Dance Collective | The Hartford Dance Collective bridges the gap between dance and community by curating unique and accessible performances led by female identifying choreographers and offering open adult movement classes that foster artistic expression\, connection\, and inclusivity. \nSince July 2017\, the Hartford Dance Collective has curated performances in unique settings\, featuring female choreographers from across the nation. We have shared dance at the Connecticut Convention Center\, the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art\, Mortensen Riverfront Plaza\, ShapeShifter Lab\, Real Art Ways\, TheaterWorks Hartford\, Dunkin Park\, Parkville Market\, & multiple breweries around the Connecticut\, to name a few; and we aim to continue to share the art form with a wide range of demographics. Along with many small programs that we present throughout the year\, \nThe Hartford Dance Collective curates the annual Hartford Dance Festival in Elizabeth Park with 25 performing groups\, which is the largest free dance festival in Connecticut. Our studio space in Hartford\, Connecticut\, provides creatives with a home to hone in on their movement vocabulary and the opportunity for us to bring professional dancers to Hartford including dancers from Pilobolus\, David Dorfman Dance\, the Limon Company\, the Radio City Rockettes\, Doug Varone and Dancers\, the Merce Cunningham Trust\, and the Brooklynettes\, to name a few. We hold the belief that everyone can dance and everyone should. Our professional and inspiring studio hosts open adult movement classes for the community featuring the Collective’s Resident Artists and Guest Instructors. A perfect place for a dancer to train\, a former dancer to reignite their love for movement\, or a member of the community looking to practice dance movement as a form of exercise\, art\, or meditation. Movement allows us to escape\, which drives our commitment to curating experiences that allow for discovery and connection.

SUMMARY:LECTURE | Beyond Blue and White: The Hidden Women of Delftware

Please purchase virtual tickets prior to 4:00 PM on the day of the lecture to ensure you receive the link.  \nPurchase Tickets\n  \nWhen over seventy-five pieces of rare Delftware were discovered in a historic Manhattan townhouse\, decorative art expert Genevieve Wheeler Brown recognized these exquisite ceramics held secrets overlooked for centuries. Join us for an illustrated journey through the hidden history of this beloved art form and the remarkable women who shaped it. \nThrough vivid images of 17th and 18th century treasures—puzzle jugs\, flower pyramids\, Persian blue teapots\, and ornate tiles—Brown reveals the stories of female factory owners like Barbara Rotteveel\, who founded “The Three Bells” in 1671\, and royal patron Queen Mary II\, whose passion for blue and white ceramics sparked a decorative revolution. Discover how pioneering American collectors Mrs. J. Pierpont Morgan and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt II laid the groundwork for women in museums while preserving decorative arts for future generations. \nPart art history\, part detective story\, this presentation celebrates the artistry and forceful female lives behind one of the world’s most coveted ceramics. \nTickets: $15 | $12.50 Virtual | $10 Members \nThis lecture will be offered in person and via Zoom. \n*Zoom link will be provided in advance of the lecture. \nAbout the Author: As a decorative art advisor and writer with over thirty years in the art world\, including a decade with Christie’s in New York and London\, Genevieve Wheeler Brown has been actively involved in the community of Delftware. She has also participated on the Antiques Roadshow as an appraiser with an eye out for overlooked “treasure.” In her role\, she has held innumerable objects\, from fake Stradivari violins to gold-mounted Faberge eggs\, considering their value but also the stories they can tell. Beyond Blue and White has been named an NPR Here & Now Editors’ Pick!\, The Art Newspaper‘s Book Bag Selection and recently received glowing reviews by the Magazine ANTIQUES and The Wall Street Journal. \n

SUMMARY:SPECIAL EVENT | Witches and Tombstones Spooktacular
DESCRIPTION:Join us on a special Halloween night as we descend into the witching hour. Our Halloween Spooktacular is an immersive experience that will transport you through our haunted history. \nA Spirit Guide – arisen for one night only – will escort you to the Isaac Stevens house where you will meet our weeping widow and discover the macabre funerary practices of the 19th century – an unfortunate regular occurrence for the Stevens family. As you follow your Spirit Guide\, you will pass through the Ancient Burial Ground where they will delight you with tales of some of Wethersfield’s longest serving ghouls. \nAt the Buttolph-Williams House you will partake in the trial of an accused witch and witness first-hand the hysteria that overtook 17 th -century Connecticut Puritans and led neighbors to condemn neighbors to the hangman’s noose. Your final stop on this journey through haunted history is the Silas Deane House. Unfortunately\, you will have arrived just a bit too late for poor Mrs. Deane\, but her ghost may tell you of the dark history of 18 th -century medicine that sealed her fate. If you dare to linger\, your obliging guide will invite you to toast her soul with a spirited drink in the old house. The only tour to be given after dark\, this extended Witches and Tombstones tour will haunt you long after you’ve departed. \nTickets: $55 \nTours: Friday\, October 31\, 6:30 pm and 7:30 pm. Each tour is limited to 20 souls. \nYou must be 18 years or older to participate in this tour.  Valid I.D. is required for all attendees. \nPlease note that this program lasts approximately 1.5 hours and requires the ability to walk some\ndistances over unpaved and uneven ground as well as standing for periods of time.
