Marking Time: How Weathersfielders Kept Track of the Hours, Days, and Seasons

The Rev. Dan Foster House opens on Saturday, June 27 from 1 to 4 p.m. for the summer season.  The summer exhibition will highlight different ways that Weathersfielders marked the passage of time.  Timepieces ticked away the hours and minutes, diaries and letters traced the daily chores and events; and seasonal activities marked the passage of months.  However, other items in our collection also traced periods of time.  This exhibition will feature unusual items in our collection as well as some special loans. Summer hours are 2 to 5 p.m. several days of week.  Once the summer docents are scheduled, the open days will be posted on the door of the Rev. Dan Foster House, emailed to members, and sent to the papers. Questions? call Ellen Clattenburg at 263-5505.
