Trip to the New Britain Museum of American
Art
Here's your chance to see a local gem and some of its collection in the company
of our members. We will have a docent-led tour from 11:30 to 12:30,
followed by lunch from their Café on the Park. You may purchase
whatever appeals to you from the menu which features gourmet sandwiches and
wraps, savory soups, salads, homemade desserts, and an array of beverages
including local favorite Avery's brand soda. Make sure you register
so that we can have a count.
