SUMMARY:"Jordan Freeman: The Fight to Set a People Free" - A Performance by Kevin Johnson
DESCRIPTION:“Jordan Freeman: The Fight to Set a People Free”\nPerformance by Kevin Johnson\nApril 23\, 2026 · 7 p.m.\nGarden House \nJust in time for the 249th anniversary of the Battle of Ridgefield\, experience historian Kevin Johnson’s compelling portrayal of Jordan Freeman\, an African American servant of John Ledyard and the body servant of Col. William Ledyard in the Revolutionary War. \nJordan Freeman was an actual person\, born into slavery in Old Lyme\, CT in 1732. When the Revolutionary War broke out in 1775\, Freeman – who did not enlist himself – witnessed key events of the war for independence while with Colonel William Ledyard. Historians estimate the number of Black soldiers in the Revolutionary War to have been about 5\,000 men\, serving in militias\, seagoing services\, and support activities – including nearly 500 from Connecticut. Some enlisted because they felt it was their duty; others because they were offered their freedom in return for satisfactory completion of a set period of service. Johnson’s interpretation is based on his extensive research in the collections of the Connecticut State Library and the Museum of Connecticut History. \nRegistration is required and will open soon. \nKevin Johnson is an employee of the State Library’s History and Genealogy Unit\, and he has been portraying Jordan Freeman for about 17 years. He also has portrayed Private William Webb\, a soldier in the Civil War\, for 26 years and has delivered over 600 presentations. The Connecticut State Library provides high quality library and information services to state government and the citizens of Connecticut. It also preserves and makes accessible the records of Connecticut’s history and heritage. The focus of the Museum and its collections is Connecticut’s government\, military and industrial history. Additional information about the State Library and the Museum of Connecticut History can be found at ctstatelibrary.org

SUMMARY:Speaker Talk: Dr. Nicholas F. Bellantoni
DESCRIPTION:“Broteer” Venture Smith\nMay 17\, 2026 · 3 p.m.\nGarden House \nVenture Smith was a Connecticut captive born in West Africa in 1729. When he arrived in America as a child\, he was forced to work on farms in Rhode Island\, New York\, and Connecticut. Broteer’s story is especially compelling: he was able to purchase his freedom along with that of his family; he became a successful businessman; and he narrated his own story\, telling of his childrehood in Africa\, the horrific Middle Passage\, his captivity\, and freedom. The Broteer Venture Smith Project combines history\, genealogy\, genetics\, and archaeology with hopes of discovering more about his life. In this presentation\, Connecticut State Archeologist Emeritus Dr. Nicholas F. Bellantoni tells of Broteer\, his life and times\, and the DNA project initiated by his descendants. \nTickets to go on sale in 2026. \nBellantoni serves as the emeritus state archaeologist with the Connecticut State Museum of Natural History at the University of Connecticut. He received his doctorate in anthropology from UConn in 1987 and was shortly thereafter appointed state archaeologist. His duties primarily included the preservation of archaeological sites in the state. He serves as an adjunct associate research professor in the department of anthropology at UConn and resided as former president of the Archaeological Society of Connecticut and the National Association of State Archaeologists. \nBellantoni’s research background includes the forensic archaeology and faunal analysis from eastern North America. He is the author a number of books written for the general public: The Long Journeys Home: The Repatriation of Henry Opukaha’ia and Albert Afraid of Hawk; “And So The Tomb Remained”: Exploring Archaeology and Forensic Science Within Connecticut’s Historical Family Mausolea; Archaeology Without Digging: Connecticut History Uncovered By Ground-Penetrating Radar; and Hiking Ruins of Southern New England: A Guide to 40 Sites in Connecticut\, Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

SUMMARY:Prospero’s America: John Winthrop Jr.\, Alchemy\, and Connecticut Culture
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Walter W. Woodward\, Connecticut State Historian emeritus\, scholar\, author\, and former Professor\, UCONN \nThis talk is the antidote to the widespread belief that Puritans were dour and mean-spirited witch-hunters\, whose godly conservatism made them anti-tolerant\, anti-science\, anti-Indian\, and anti-business and commerce. It recounts the story of John Winthrop\, Jr.\, who was not only one of New England’s most important founders and the governor of Connecticut for 17 years\, but also a protector of accused witches\, a guardian of Indians singled out for genocide\, and the most renowned scientist in all the colonies\, who sought to use alchemy to make Connecticut a God-inspired scientific research laboratory. \nThis hitherto unknown story\, from the award winning book of the same name\, will make you reconsider what you thought you knew about early Connecticut and the English people who colonized it. \nBIO\nWalter W. Woodward is Connecticut State Historian emeritus. He served as the State Historian of Connecticut and a member of  the History Department at the University of Connecticut  from 2004 to 2022. He was the fifth person to hold the position of State Historian\, which was created in the 1930s in preparation for Connecticut’s 300th anniversary. He retired in July of 2022\, becoming Connecticut State Historian emeritus. Dr. Woodward is a scholar of Early American and Atlantic World history\, with an emphasis on Connecticut and New England. He is the author of five books\, the most recent of which is Creating Connecticut: Critical Moments That Shaped a Great State (Globe Pequot Press\, 2020). His book Prospero’s America: John Winthrop\, Jr.\,Alchemy and the Creation of New England Culture\, 1606-1676 (Omohundro Institute\, University of North Carolina Press\, 2010) won the Homer Babbidge Prize from the Association for the Study of Connecticut History\, and was a Choice magazine Outstanding academic title. \nProf. Woodward received his Ph. D. with Distinction from the University of Connecticut in 2001 He obtained his Master’s Degree in History from Cleveland State University\, and his B.A. in English from the University of Florida.  Prior to joining UConn\, he was a faculty member of the Department of History at Dickinson College in Carlisle\, PA. \n  \nAs State Historian emeritus\, Woodward continues to research\, write and share his love for the history of Connecticut and New England through the Today in Connecticut History program  and at TODAYINCTHISTORY.com\, musical performances with his group The Band of Steady Habits\, articles\, and public lectures.

SUMMARY:Lockwood-Matthews Mansion: Irish American Art in collaboration with Quinnipiac University
DESCRIPTION:On March 12\, 2026\, 12-4 p.m.\, The Lockwood-Mathews Mansion Museum\, in collaboration with Quinnipiac University and Ireland’s Great Hunger Museum of Fairfield\, will inaugurate its 2026 Season with the opening of a new exhibition titled\,  A Journey of Hope: The Irish American Immigrant Experience\, followed by a reception at 5:30-7:30 p.m. generously sponsored by O’Neill’s Irish Pub and Restaurant\, and featuring music from The Shamrogues. The show will run through May 17\, 2026\, and feature paintings and sculptures displayed in the Mansion’s Art Gallery as well as in the Servants’ Quarters. Viewing will be included with the purchase of a guided tour. Please visit www.lockwoodmathewsmansion.com for additional information. \nFormer President of Ireland\, Michael D. Higgin stated that “The Irish Famine of 1845 to 1852 was the greatest social calamity\, in terms of morality and suffering\, that Ireland has ever experienced. From 1845 to 1855\, over 1.5 million people emigrated from Ireland to America searching for a better life. This exhibition will highlight the topic of Irish immigration to America in the 19th century using art as a visual reference. This exhibit will connect directly to the early history of the Mansion\, when most of the domestic staff was Irish and where today’s visitors will have an opportunity to revisit the Servants’ Quarters with an installation of sculptures by Irish American artists. \nIreland’s Great Hunger Museum of Fairfield contains the world’s largest collection of Great Hunger-related art by noted contemporary Irish and Irish American artists as well as several period paintings by some of Ireland’s most important 19th-century artists. Ireland’s Great Hunger Museum of Fairfield exists at the intersection of art\, history\, and moral imagination. Rooted in the story of Ireland\, but speaking to the wider world\, the museum strives to remember what happens when a society turns away from its most vulnerable – and to honor the resilience of those who endure. \nThis exhibition will be curated by Ryan Mahoney who is the Project Manager at the Springfield Museums in Springfield\, MA. A graduate of St. John Fisher College (BA) and the University at Albany (MA)\, Mahoney has over 15-years of experience working in the museum field\, including serving as Executive Director for both the Irish American Heritage Museum in Albany\, NY and Ireland’s Great \nHunger Museum at Quinnipiac University in Hamden\, CT. Active in the Irish American Community\, Mahoney has served as a national board member for the Irish American Cultural Institute and as a board member of the United Irish Societies of the Capital District. He also was an active member of the Albany St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee. In 2016\, Mahoney was named a recipient of the 40 under 40 Award by the Irish Echo. \nLMMM’s contemporary art exhibits are sponsored in part by Designer/Artist/Author Gail Ingis\, and Kathy Olsen\, CPA.LMMM’s 2026 programs are made possible in part by LMMM’s 2026 Season Distinguished Benefactors: The City of Norwalk\, The Maurice Goodman Foundation\, Inc.\, and Lockwood-Mathews Foundation\, Inc.; LMMM’s Leadership Patrons: Dr. Michele and Attorney Miklos Koleszar; and The Sealark Foundation.
