SUMMARY:Watermark: Capturing the Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:Special Exhibit \nWatermark: Capturing the Connecticut \nOn view: August 15 through October 19\, 2025 \n\nThe exhibit and related programs will engage visitors through the work of the artists\, allowing viewers to discover compelling stories about the River and connect with the landscape and communities around them. Selected artists for the exhibit are Evie Lovett\, Janet Pritchard\, Guy Russell\, and Nancy O. Albert—one from each of the states that borders the River. \nEach artist brings their own subject and style\, but their work will respond to the exhibit’s overarching themes: the natural and built landscape\, environmental changes\, and people’s relationship with the Connecticut River and its Valley. In addition to the exhibit itself\, our Education department will develop materials to engage younger audiences in close looking and observation. \nPhoto Credit: Detail from the Stream series by Guy Russell.

SUMMARY:Tree Swallow Sunset Trips on Onrust & RiverQuest
DESCRIPTION:Join us aboard RiverQuest & Onrust as we sail to a special spot on the Connecticut River where 100’s of thousands of Tree Swallows gather.

They gather at sunset and perform aerial ballets forming an amazing display of art\, coordination and cooperation! \nEnjoy the entire evening! We will spend 2+ hours on the water aboard Onrust. \nThis sail is primarily to see the Tree Swallows\, however\, it is also about the journey….there is so much to see while sailing along the river. \nThis is a small group experience that is unique each sailing. The captain and crew promise a great evening for all to enjoy the Tree Swallow show and this special time on the pristine Connecticut River! \nAdults Only / Ages 10+\, $50 \n\nBOOK NOW\n(There is limited availability.

SUMMARY:Live from the Boathouse! Steve Gephard presents Sea Lamprey: Misunderstood River Engineers
DESCRIPTION:Live from the Boathouse!\nSteve Gephard presents Sea Lamprey: Misunderstood River Engineers\nTuesday\, September 09\, 2025\n6 – 7 pm \nIn-person and Virtual Pricing:\nMembers: FREE (please use the ticket reservation link to reserve your spot)\nNon-Members: $5.00 \nThis lecture will be available in person and over Zoom. To access the live stream\, please purchase a Virtual Ticket using the link below! \nRESERVE YOUR SPOT \n  \n \nSea Lamprey have a bad reputation: they invaded the Great Lakes in the mid-1800s\, they suck the blood of other fish\, and many consider their appearance to be off-putting. But these parasitic creatures are not all that they seem. Sea Lamprey play an important and under-recognized role in the Connecticut River ecosystem\, providing food for other river species and bringing in vital nutrients from the ocean. Join Steve Gephard for a talk that dissects these misunderstood fish and challenges our ideas of which species are “good” and worthy of our appreciation. \nAs a Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection fisheries biologist\, Steve Gephard worked tirelessly for 42years to restore a viable population of Atlantic salmon and other migratory fishes in the Connecticut River. Now\, he educates the public about the role fish play in the ecosystem and works with governments in North America and Europe to conserve salmon populations in the North Atlantic.
