July 11th – October 13th, 2014

The Connecticut River Museum was founded in 1974, making 2014 its 40th anniversary. We are celebrating with an exhibit on the 3rd floor titled, Reflections: 40 Years Along the River, which gives visitors and members a sense of who we are and what we do.

The Reflections exhibit touches on the core principles of the Museum: our dedication to collections, exhibits, programs, and preservation efforts. On view is an old “Upper Deck” sign from the building’s restaurant days, various artistic interpretations of Steamboat Dock during the mid-20th century and a rail boat used by Oliver Laplace. Also, you can come talk to Steve Cryan, our “artist in residence”, and watch while he paints in the gallery.
