Field Trip 2: Visiting "Fortune's World" at the Mattatuck Museum







On April 4th our students visited the Mattatuck Museum in Waterbury CT. Our day focused on the impact of slavery in Waterbury. We toured the Waterbury Green and discovered so many interesting facts about life in early Waterbury, learned about the Porter family and the slaves that lived here too! In the museum our docents shared several exhibits with us, helping us to see what life what like in early Waterbury and everyone's favorite exhibit, 'Fortune's Story'.
