Connecticut River Museum

Join Tumble Science Podcast for Kids for a live event at the Connecticut River Museum. Expect a delightful morning with games and stories inspired by their popular episode “What’s That Bird Song?” Together, families will explore the vibrant world of Northeast birds—how they sound, where they live, and their special ties to our surroundings. Special guest Emmy Brockman, an award-winning singer-songwriter and early childhood education specialist, will be performing as well. This interactive event promises curiosity, joy, and discovery—Tumble style! Tumble is a science podcast to be enjoyed by the entire family. It is hosted and produced by Lindsay Patterson (science journalist) and Marshall Escamilla (teacher). Join Lindsay and Marshall as they ask questions, uncover mysteries, and share what science is all about. Members $10; Non-Members $12

Join us for a special talk featuring one of the artists behind our Watermark: Capturing the Connecticut exhibit. During this program, Evie Lovett will touch on the historical origins of cyanotype photography and its contemporary usages in education and fine art. Lovett walked the watershed where she lives in Vermont, from its headwaters in a damp spot in a forested nature preserve, down past her home, alongside dirt roads, backyards, an auto repair shop’s junked cars, fields of corn, beaver dams, wetlands, a bird “hot spot”, the village of Putney, Vermont, the shuttered Putney Paper Mill (once powered by the brook), under I-91 and the railroad tracks, until it reached the Connecticut River. Along the way, she made photographs, gathered plants, shapes, and patterns. Back in her studio, she incorporated this material, along with text, research, and maps, into her art. This lecture will be available in person and over Zoom. To access the live stream, please purchase a Virtual Ticket. Members Free; Non-Members $5 RSVP is required.
