New Canaan Reminiscences Around the Cracker Barrel

• Thursday, March 12 at 3:00 p.m.
• Lindstrom Room

Each lecture is free for members of the Society, Staying Put in New Canaan, and students.

Admission for all others is $5 per session.

In the “olden days,” neighbors would gather regularly around the cracker barrel at the country store to share town gossip, ideas and philosophies, a sort of informal exchange of information that the Historical Society program will recall when its own group shares personal memories of New Canaan as they knew it or heard of it dating back to the early 20th century. Everybody is invited to join Jim Bach, Ed Chrostowski, Don Hersam, Wilma DeiCas, Gary Liberatore and Fisina Tomaselli as they share their nostalgia around the Historical Society’s own imaginary cracker barrel.
