PERMANENT EXHIBITIONS

Puzzle Pieces: Putting Wilton Together stitches together colorful pieces of history to illustrate that thousands of people – historical and current – whether they are permanent residents, workers who commute in, or simply visitors passing through, have all contributed to making Wilton the town it is today. They are all pieces of the puzzle that come together to create a place that is both unique and evolving every day.

Connecticut’s History, Wilton’s Story presents unique objects that embody Wilton’s progression from its pre-Colonial era to a small New England agricultural village to what it is today. This exhibit offers fascinating insight into Wilton’s history while encouraging exploration of the sites around town, such as Weir Farm and Ambler Farm.

Just Like Grandma Used to Make: A Hands-on Experience of 300 Years of Kitchen History is an interactive exhibit that gives visitors the opportunity to touch and use historical objects based on food growing, storing, cooking.
