SUMMARY:The Importance of Connecticut to the Revolution with Mike Allen
DESCRIPTION:Connecticut played an outsized role in winning U.S. independence from the British Empire. Prominent historical figures contributed to the formation of the new country\, while Connecticut earned the nickname “the provision state” because of its supplies of food and ammunition to the Continental Army.\n\n\nMilitary actions in Danbury\, Ridgefield\, Saugatuck\, Groton\, New London\, New Haven\, Greenwich\, Norwalk\, and Fairfield were significant.\n\n\nRoger Sherman\, Israel Putnam\, Jonathan Trumbull\, Benedict Arnold\, Noah Webster\, and others played critical roles\, while other notable figures visited the state during the Revolutionary War years: George Washington\, French General Rochambeau\, John Hancock\, and more.\n\n\nThe Connecticut Compromise broke a stalemate in the Continental Congress and allowed progress to continue forming the Constitution.\n\n\nNoted storyteller and journalist Mike Allen\, former host of the popular podcast Amazing Tales About History\, will walk through the key people and events in Connecticut during our nation’s tumultuous march to independence\, 250 years ago.\n\n \n\n\nThe talk will be held on Thursday\, April 30\, at 7:00 p.m. at the Wilton Historical Society (224 Danbury Road in Wilton).\nThe event is free for Historical Society members. For non-members\, there is a $10.00 fee.\n\n\nRegistration required.\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by ASML.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...

SUMMARY:Feeding the Body Politic: Culinary Satire and the Print Market in an Age of Revolution Lecture and Food Tasting at The Wilton Historical Society
DESCRIPTION:Food has long carried political meaning\, and its significance in revolutionary America is no exception. Join art and culinary historian Nancy Siegel for a lecture and historic food tasting which investigates a distinct genre of culinary-inspired satirical prints produced by artists sympathetic to the plight of American colonists. Imagine King George III placing a fleet of ships in an oven about to be baked like gingerbread\, the Prince of Wales gorging himself on the fortunes of Empire\, the American colonies represented as a kettle of fish\, exploding teapots—visual metaphors that spoke to the conditions and events that eventually dismantled the British Empire: non-importation movements in the American colonies\, complex trade embargoes\, protests over taxation\, the anti-saccharite movement that called for boycotts of sugar from the West Indies produced by enslaved laborers\, and—ultimately—Revolution.\n\n\nAbout Nancy Siegel:\n\n\nNancy Siegel is Assistant Dean and Professor of Art History & Culinary History at Towson University\, where she specializes in American landscape studies\, underrepresented women artists of the 19th century\, print culture\, and culinary history of the 18th and 19th centuries. She provides historical cooking demonstrations\, tastings\, and lectures widely on landscape and food histories in addition to serving as an art and culinary consultant for museums and non-profit institutions. This lecture is based upon her forthcoming book\, Political Appetites: The Power of Food in Revolutionary America (Johns Hopkins University Press\, 2026) available now for preorders and the documentary Feeding the Revolution (WMHT).\n\n\nThe talk will be held on Sunday\, Apr. 26th\, 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. at the Wilton Historical Society.\nAdmission is $25 non-members\, $15 for members of the Wilton Historical Society.\n\n\nThis program is sponsored by ASML\n\n \n\n\nRegister online\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...

SUMMARY:Wilton Historical Society Documentary Screening: The Hidden History of Slavery in New York
DESCRIPTION:The Hidden History of Slavery in New York digs deeply into an infamous chapter in our country that hasn’t always made its way into the history books. The film features Bryan Stevenson\, founder of the Equal Justice Initiative\, and explores how the Transatlantic trade of enslaved people was centered in the north\, not the south\, in the 17th and 18th century — with New Amsterdam as its epicenter — and Wall Street as its largest market. Journalist Larry Epstein wrote\, produced and researched the project\, which won an award at the 67th annual NY Emmy Awards.\n\n\nOn Thursday\, Jan. 22\, at 7 p.m. at the Wilton Historical Society\, Epstein will present this film along with a Q&A session afterwards.\n\n\nEpstein is a two-time Emmy award-winning documentary and news producer\, journalist\, writer\, anchor and corporate copywriter. He is a former executive producer at MSNBC and former senior-level producer at the Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network.\n\n\nSpace is limited and registration is required. The cost to attend is $10 per person for non-members\, free for Wilton Historical Society members.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...

SUMMARY:Victorian Mourning Customs Lecture
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, Oct. 23\, at 7 p.m.\, historian and award-winning costumer Jess Bolduc will\nlead a lecture on the customs and traditions of Victorian mourning at the Wilton Historical\nSociety.\n\n\nIn the 19th century\, grief was expressed through carefully observed rules of dress\, etiquette\, and memorial practices that shaped how families navigated loss. From mourning clothing and jewelry to expectations placed on widows and children\, these customs reflected both personal sorrow and wider cultural values. Drawing on both scholarly research and hands-on experience with period attire\, this lecture will provide insight into how Victorians approached death and remembrance\, offering a clearer understanding of daily life\, social expectations\, and the ways mourning helped define an era. The lecture will include historical examples from the museum’s collection.\n\n\nAdmission is $10 per person for non-members\, free for Wilton Historical Society members.\n\n\nRegistration is required. Register online or by email.\n\n\n\n\n	See more related GMW stories...
