Have you ever wondered how people used to travel up and down the Connecticut River before Google Maps? Come by the Connecticut River Museum on November 7 for storytime and a craft activity designed for young learners! We’ll read Stargazers, a picture book by Gail Gibbons, and learn all about the stars that can be seen above the Connecticut River. 

Following the story, young learners and their caregivers will have the opportunity to make their own River Night Sky by using glow-in-the-dark stickers to create constellations such as Pegasus, Andromeda, and Pisces.
