The Florence Griswold Museum hosts a small town parade through Faerieville tomorrow, Sunday, Oct. 22, at 2 p.m. The parade will be led by the Chester Fife & Drum Corps, which was established in 1868 and is not only the oldest, continuously active fife & drum corps in Connecticut, but also one of the oldest in the United States. The group is comprised of members both young and seasoned, who play a repertoire of traditional early Revolutionary War music.
Come early and imbue enchantment with dancer L’Ana Burton who will lead faerie dance lessons beginning at 1:30 p.m. The Museum is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Wings, crowns, tiaras, and Americana attire encouraged.
Local artisans and crafters will offer their artful objects inspired by faeries, nature, and more at a special one-day, pop-up display at the Museum from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Create your own artful projects in the Education Center during your visit. (11am to 5pm) where Museum Educators will present an Americana-inspired hands-on project for families to enjoy during their visit.
