Youth Program:
Summer Enrichment for High School Students

Our Summer Enrichment Program brings together a small group of teenagers, allowing students to pursue their interest in history and develop important life- and work-skills. During the program, students will have the chance to work behind the scenes at the CHS, take weekly field trips to other museums, explore original artifacts, make new friends, and much more! Pre-registration required. For more information, call (860) 236-5621 x222 or email Erin Kania.
